Nut sedge, chufa sedge, yellow nut-grass, or simply nutsedge, are some of the other commonly used synonyms for nutgrass.
This weed can be identified by its triangular stems and grass-like leaves. It thrives in moist, warm environments and can be challenging to remove once established. A combination of physical removal and herbicide treatment is usually necessary to get rid of nutgrass completely.
