Eriophorum russeolum

Description

Eriophorum russeoleum, commonly known as dwarf cottongrass, is a low-growing, clump-forming perennial with slender, grass-like green leaves forming tight tussocks in wet soils and boggy areas. In late spring to summer, it produces small, white, fluffy seed heads above the foliage, giving a delicate, airy texture rather than showy flowers.

This species is valuable for wetland biodiversity, offering cover for small insects and amphibians while enhancing the naturalistic appearance of pond margins and bog gardens. Its compact, tufted habit and tolerance of waterlogged or consistently wet conditions make it ideal for pond edges, wet meadows, and naturalistic water features.
