One spike with only 1(-3) perigynia at the base of a long male section of flowers, the two separated by a short internode; stigmas 3; peri glabrous, erect and large (5-7 mm); female scale < 1 cm, persistent and with no sheath. Look tufted but growing from rhizomes so can form rather large patches. In dry habitats, often in woodlands.
