Cyperaceae ??

Most Cyperaceae sp. have lite or strong aromatic taste and smell. I already checked this, but doesn’t feel any of these properties, so I am confused. Very rare and only one here,

Yes, it is Fuirena umbellata of Cyperaceae,
thank you very much for ID my plant,

Google said sedge plant have triangular stem, but pseudostem of this plant is cylindrical,

Yes, … Appears close to images at Fuirena umbellata

Furirena sps of Cyperaceae

It is Fuirena sp., can be F. ciliaris (L.) Roxb.
