looks like some sort of sedge.

Blessed are the "cracked" ... for it is they who let in the light.

Looks like a bulrush to me (a kind of swamp grass). It has an extensive root system and can be a real PITA to remove without yanking out a big gob of soil.

It's a weed, remove the stem slowly to get all the roots!
