An impact of 3 for identification to level of genus is too generous: 'sp." could be an introduced species, a rare species or a common species.

Not sure of this helps but this was quite a tall Juncus, to about 1.5m, with very thick round stems up to perhaps 4mm. Most seemed to have dies off for some reason, perhaps from the dry spell in spring.
