Luzula longiflora is a flowering plant in the rush family. The specific epithet refers to the relatively long floral perianth.[1]

Description

It is a herb, growing to 10–30 cm in height. The tufted leaves are 5–35 cm long and 4–5 mm wide. The inflorescences are 5–25 cm high and branched, with dense heads of numerous flowers subtended by leaf-like bracts.[1]
