    This specimen was photographed at the Doris Duke Gardens in New Jersey. Can anyone identify it? Thanks!

    More on the order of C. alternifolius.

    Looks like Cyperus involucratus (syn. C. alternifolius), Umbrella Plant.

    Thanks everyone. I think I agree with Cyperus involucratus (syn. C. alternifolius), Umbrella Plant, cousin to Papyrus.
