    It's a Cyperus sedge ... sometimes called Umbrella grass and grown in the UK as a houseplant.

    Cyperus papyrus?
    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    of course, what I meant was 'couldn't say'. Otherwise I would have done so :)

    Cyperus. But don't know which one. Most not hardy in this country. Easy and fun to propagate though.
