Description
The sandhill sword-sedge is a tufted perennial with a short vertical rhizome and rigid, erect, sharp-edged culms. It grows to 20–60 cm in height and 3–7 mm in width. The inflorescence is ovate to oblong, 3–15 cm long and 2–4 cm in diameter, with a shorter involucral bract. The numerous spikelets are 5–8 mm long. The smooth, pale to dark brown, ovoid nut is 2.7–4.0 mm long and 1.3–1.8 mm in diameter. It flowers in spring and summer.[1]
