Trichophorum Cespitosum
''Trichophorum cespitosum'', commonly known as deergrass or tufted bulrush, is a species of flowering plant in the sedge family. It was originally described by the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus in 1753 as ''Scirpus cespitosus'', but was transferred to the genus ''Trichophorum'' by the Swedish botanist Carl Johan Hartman in 1849, becoming ''Trichophorum cespitosum''. Description ''Trichophorum cespitosum'' is a densely tufted perennial sedge often growing gregariously. The wiry stems are round in cross section and slightly ridged, and grow up to long. The leaves are reduced to several pointed sheaths at the base of the stem. The blade of the uppermost sheath is longer than that of the few-flowered spike-rush (''Eleocharis quinqueflora''), an otherwise similar plant, which has a small squarish upper leaf blade. The brownish inflorescence is a very small, narrow terminal head, with the basal pointed, ribbed green glume In botany, a glume is a bract (leaf-like structure) bel ...

It is present in Europe, Asia, and northern North America.Williams, Tara Y. 1990''Trichophorum alpinum''.In: Fire Effects Information System, nline U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station, Fire Sciences Laboratory. This sedge produces stems up to tall from a short rhizome. The leaves are no more than a centimeter long. The flowers have cottony white bristles that may extend past the spikelet.
