Description
Wool Grass- Scirpus cyperinus is a Robust Perennial
Wool grass has 5 to 9 alternating green leaves that grow up the stalk of the plant. At the top is a cluster of spikelets covered by reddish-brown curly bristles that give the grass a woolly appearance. It keeps this fuzzy appearance through the growing season. In the fall the plant turns golden brown.
Wool Grass is a Versatile Erosion Prevention
The plant is versatile and can withstand dry spells and standing water. It prefers full sun and moist or wet soil. It is a great plant for a water garden, or to help stop erosion. Wool grass gets its name because of the way it has a striking resemblance, to downy in light of the idea that it has long, thin stems with battered, fluffy blooms that are all that much indistinguishable to wool. Wool grass can stay green and has shading enduring during that time until considerable ice hits it. Wool grass, a typical plant in most areas around the world, has many different breeds. One is a creeping type of plant that creates a mat-like surface on the ground. While some gardeners might consider it a weed, a lot of others specifically search for it as an addition to their gardens. Its aesthetically pleasing carpet-like construction makes it useful for practical purposes, such as natural insulation or padding in a rocky area. Other breeds are more vertical and unbranded. These usually bloom in the summer with the help of warm winds and keep their foliage all season long. Their blooms are very intricate, with light colored nodes covered in hairs. Many gardeners enjoy the way the delicate hairs catch the sunlight.
Though many consider this soft plant a weed, they make great additions to gardens; they may not be as flashy as some flowers, but when a gentle touch is needed, with just a tint of color to rest the eyes on, the wood grass is your plant! They are also relatively self-sufficient, and once settled, require little to keep them going.
The Scripus Cyprinus grass also referred to as Wool Grass, is a perennial sedge and a member of the Cyperaceae family.

As a perennial with robust rhizomes and tall stems, the Scripus Cyprinus is best grown in USDA Growing Zones 4 – 8. America's largest populations of the Wool Grass found in a variety of wet environments, including muddy bog-lands, marsh banks, and on the edge of rivers and streams.
The blooming season for the Wool Grass happens between the early Summer to mid-Summer months of June and July and is marked by the plant's change in color from primarily green to light-brown.
The Wool Grass ideally grows under a combination of full-spectrum sunlight and cyclical shade. Soil conditions are preferably medium-moisture to wet, as this grass can grow effectively in standing pools of low-depth water. This sedge's primary mechanism of growth is creeping rhizomes, and it will naturally colonize under the best of conditions. Stems reach maximum heights of between 4 feet and 5 feet tall
Being commonly planted in aquatic gardens, Wool Grass is frequently used as ornamentation during the Fall because of the dramatic color change among the foliage.
