    "description": "Juncaceae is a family of flowering plants, commonly known as the rush family.  It consists of 8 genera and about 464 known species  of slow-growing, rhizomatous, herbaceous  monocotyledonous plants that may superficially resemble grasses and sedges. They often grow on infertile soils in a wide range of moisture conditions. The best-known and largest genus is Juncus. Most of the Juncus species grow exclusively in wetland habitats. A few rushes, such as Juncus bufonius are annuals, but most are perennials. Despite the apparent similarity, Juncaceae are not counted among the plants with the vernacular name bulrush.",
