It is in the Syngonanthus genus and pipewort family Eriocaulaceae. A perennial, it grows to about a foot in height. It grows in flatwoods, prairies, and pond margins. It has very small flowers that bloom February to July and appear as small white buttons and it has shiny leaves. Eugen Otto Wilhelm Ruhland reclassified it from ''Eriocaulon ''Eriocaulon'' is a genus of about 400 species commonly known as pipeworts, of monocotyledonous flowering plants in the family Eriocaulaceae.

Eriocaulaceae
The Eriocaulaceae are a family of monocotyledonous flowering plants in the order Poales, commonly known as the pipewort family. The family is large, with about 1207 known species described in seven genera. They are widely distributed, with the centers of diversity for the group occurring in tropical regions, particularly the Americas. Very few species extend to temperate regions, with only 16 species in the United States, mostly in the southern states from California to Florida, only two species in Canada, and only one species (''Eriocaulon aquaticum'') in Europe. They tend to be associated with wet soils, many growing in shallow water. This is also reported from the southern part of India and the regions of Western Ghats hot spots. The species are mostly herbaceous perennial plants, though some are annual plants; they resemble plants in the related families Cyperaceae (sedges) and Juncaceae (rushes), and like them, have rather small, wind-pollinated flowers grouped together in ...

Eugen Otto Wilhelm Ruhland
Eugen Otto Wilhelm Ruhland (7 August 1878 – January 5, 1960) was a German botanist and plant physiologist. He served as a professor of botany at the universities of Tübingen and Erlangen. Ruhland was born in Schleswig where his father was a government official. After studies at Köllnisches Gymnasium in Berlin, he went to the University of Berlin in 1896. He received a doctorate in 1899 and habilitated in 1903. He then lectured at the University of Berlin and simultaneously worked on the family Eriocaulaceae and contributed to Adolf Engler's volumes on plants (volume 13). In 1911 he joined the University of Halle where he worked on agricultural botany (and fungal infections of crops) and in 1918 he became a professor at the University of Tübingen. In 1922 he became a full professor at the University of Leipzig. Along with Hans Winkler he founded and edited the journal ''Planta'' from 1925. In 1933 he was a signatory to the Vow of allegiance of the Professors of the German Univer ...

Eriocaulon
''Eriocaulon'' is a genus of about 400 species commonly known as pipeworts, of monocotyledonous flowering plants in the family Eriocaulaceae. The genus is widely distributed, with the centers of diversity for the group occurring in tropical regions, particularly southern Asia and the Americas. A few species extend to temperate regions, with ca. 10 species in the United States, mostly in the southern states from California to Florida, and only two species in Canada; China has 35 species, also mostly southern. Only one species (''E. aquaticum'') occurs in Europe, where it is confined to the Atlantic Ocean coasts of Scotland and Ireland; this species also occurs in eastern North America and is thought to be a relatively recent natural colonist in Europe. In the Americas, ''Eriocaulon'' is the only genus in its family that occurs north of Florida. They tend to be associated with wet soils, many growing in shallow water, in wetlands, or in wet savannas like flatwoods. In wet soils, th ...
