This is coming up in my moss. The blades are only 3" tall and it is flowering now in May. It looks to be a miniature grass. Can anyone help me out with an ID?  |

| It looks very much like a 'weed' I have, which also grows in poor areas with moss. Luzula campestris .. http://www.thewildflowersociet... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L... Check which species you have for your location, there's photos at the bottom of the page. http://luirig.altervista.org/f... |

| I agree, it does look like Luzula campestris which is found in some of the northern U.S. states: https://plants.usda.gov/core/p...

| Luzula multiflora ssp. multiflora looks good .. http://science.halleyhosting.c... |

| I checked other species in PA, this seems to be the only one it could be. There's no entries here: Common woodrush (Luzula multiflora subsp. multiflora) |
