Scirpus cyperinus

Woolgrass Bullrush

Woolgrass Bullrush is a great native plant for wet meadows, bogs and rain gardens. It performs well in wet disturbed sites, often colonizing otherwise difficult areas attractively. The interesting inflorescences appear in midsummer on 4 to 5' stems held well above the green grass-like foliage. Their light green color changes to salmon-red as the fluffy, wooly seed clusters mature in fall. The effect is very showy in mass and the seedheads persist almost all winter. In addition to being very water tolerant, Scirpus has also shown good salt tolerance.
