This specimen is not characteristic of any Lomandra species. The area where this specimen occurs is narrowed down to just 3 species, X. australis, X. concava and X. resinosa. The untidy crown/tuft of long with some highly flexed leaves, acaulescent habit and long thin scape with equal spike length strongly suggests X. concava.

Xanthorrhoea concava

this is clearly not Lomandra longifolia, and is clearly a Xanthorrhoea (although I don't know what species) but a long as this is listed as Lomandra longifolia it is not going to attract attention of relevant moderators.
