Wool Grass (Scirpus cyperinus)

Wool Grass is a 3' to 5' tall native perennial member of the sedge family, and not a rush as the common name might indicate. The plant stems terminate in 6" and larger compound clusters of flowers or seed heads. Bristles on the seed stick out from the seed scales giving the seed heads their wooly appearance. Wool Grass grows in dense clusters and often forms large colonies. This plant requires moist to wet sites and prefers full sun sites. It is an attractive plant used in moist gardens, wetland restoration, and wetland conservation seed mixes. It provides food and cover for waterfowl and other wetland wildlife.
