Is this Gahnia aspera ?

[bardo]

Hey, was hoping someone might be able to help me confirm if this plant is Gahnia aspera or if it is some other type of Gahnia ?

I have read that the seeds of aspera are edible and a flour can be made from them, so I am hoping it is indeed aspera. 

Thank you for any and all help : )

looks like a Gahnia spp. to me. Dont have G.aspera in my neck of the wood.

 

of the local Gahnias here the seeds have an oil  and a thick outer coat which makes grinding the bastards hard work.  Can make cordage out of the foliage, again not the easiest to work with. Makes a good cordage for climbing trees though

Cool, thanks for the reply : )  Hoping to get a positive id because if it is aspera I am heaps keen to experiment with it, maybe make some small bread cake things or to add it in with whole meal flour etc to make bread. I might have to investigate further to see if there is many or any look a likes and what some key factors may be in identifying or differentiating from possible non edible types. Any how thanks again for the reply : )
