(Clump of plants in front of the pieris and behind the euonymous).

They started to appear in the garden last year and are now popping up
everywhere.

Linear leaves, up to 22mm wide and 400mm long, with very slightly serrated
edges, no indication of flowers.

Location S Devon redlands, garden used to be part of broadleafed woodland.

That looks like one of the foreign ornamental grasses that one now finds all
over the countryside, especially by canals etc.
