The annual sedge typically grows to a height of 0.1 to 0.75 metres (0.3 to 2.5 ft) and has a tufted habit. It blooms between May and December and produces green-yellow-brown flowers. [3] The erect and glabrous grass has fine and numerous roots. It as slender or rigidulous, trigonous stems that are 0.5 to 2.0 millimetres (0.020 to 0.079 in) thick.
The annual or perennial sedge has a slender tufted habit. It has smooth trigonous or triquetrous shaped culms that are typically 10 to 35 cm (3.9 to 13.8 in) in height with a diameter of 0.8 to 2 mm (0.031 to 0.079 in) diameter. [2] The septate to nodulose leaves are shorter than the culms and have a width of about 4.5 mm (0.18 in).
Cyperus polystachyos, also known as Pycreus polystachyos, and also called manyspike flatsedge in the US, [3] or bunchy sedge, [4] [5] coast flatsedge, many-spiked sedge or Texas sedge in Australia, [5] is a herbaceous species in the family Cyperaceae, widespread in tropical and subtropical areas around the world, sometimes extending its range into temperate regions.
They are annual or perennial plants, mostly aquatic and growing in still or slow-moving water up to 0.5 metres (20 in) deep. The species vary greatly in size, with small species only 5 centimetres (2 in) tall, while others can reach 5 metres (16 ft) in height. Common names include papyrus sedges, flatsedges, nutsedges, umbrella-sedges and ...
Cyperus acuminatus is a common species of sedge known by several common names, including tapertip flatsedge and pale umbrella-sedge.This plant is native to North America, where it is widespread across the Great Plains and the western United States, with scattered populations in the eastern US as well as in Saskatchewan, Tamaulipas and Coahuila.
The Cyperaceae (/ ˌ s aɪ p ə ˈ r eɪ s i. iː,-ˌ aɪ /) are a family of graminoid (grass-like), monocotyledonous flowering plants known as sedges.The family is large; botanists have described some 5,500 known species in about 90 genera [3] [4] – the largest being the "true sedges" (genus Carex), [5] [6] with over 2,000 species.
Carex rosea flowers in the spring, and it has evergreen leaves. The styles of this Carex rosea, the stalk connecting the stigma to the ovary, are very distinctively curled, which helps to differentiate this species from other plants. The stigmas range from 0.07 to 0.10 mm thick, while the leaves are almost 1/8 mm wide.
Cyperus difformis is a species of sedge known by several common names, including variable flatsedge, [2] smallflower umbrella-sedge and rice sedge. [3] This plant is native to southern Europe, most of Africa and Asia, and Australia, and it is naturalized in other areas of the world, including large parts of the Americas.
