Thanks - that was close to a world record for speed of confirmation!!
But what makes it L. flaccida? I tossed up between the two but thought flaccida had less leaves and stems.

Leaf size, and infloresence shape. L.flaccida is more common in the hills that L.Densiflora. A revision is needed for the Luzula sp on CNM there are a few mistakes that need to be ironed out.
