  1. cyperus rotundus

    Cyperus rotundus, commonly known as purple nutsedge, Java grass, or nutgrass, is a perennial plant species from the sedge family. It is native to Africa, Southern and Central Europe, and Southern Asia, but it is now globally distributed as a weed. It is considered one of the world's most invasive species and the most costly weed to manage in tropical and subtropical regions due to its impacts on crop yields. The plant has a complex system of underground tubers, which is responsible for its persistence and invasiveness. The tubers are also used in herbal medicine in many cultures.
