Olney's hairy sedge, wonderwoman sedge
|
| Plants rhizomatous, shoots arising singly or in clumps, 5.5–20 cm tall; plant bases reddish brown. |
Plants cespitose, 20–100+ cm tall. |
sheath fronts membranous; blades 1–3.1 mm wide. |
lower sheaths reddish brown; bladeless; and hairy; upper sheaths dark red to green on back; sheath fronts tan-hyaline, with or without red dots, usually pubescent at the top, sometimes hairy on the margins; blades 3–12 mm wide; flat to W-shaped, sparsely hairy, with ciliate margins. |
basal spikes absent; lowest bract sheath inflated, 2–5 mm long; blade absent or less than 2 cm long, purpletinged; lateral spikes 2–3, crowded near the terminal spike, 0.4–0.7 × 0.2–0.4 mm; terminal spike male; tiny, 0.3–0.7 cm × 1.1–1.5 mm. |
bract sheaths well developed; more or less inflated, 5–50 mm long; lateral spikes 2–5; female; cylindrical, 1.2–4 cm × 4–11 mm; terminal spike male (rarely gynaecandrous), sessile or nearly so, 0.8–3 cm long. |
elliptic, 2.3–3.3(3.5) × 1.1–1.4 mm, pubescent with crinkled hairs; veinless but with 2 ribs, bases succulent, withering when dry; beak 0.3–0.4 mm long; stigmas 3. |
3.7–5.3 × 1–2.2 mm, with rather long hairs, light green with reddish blotches at base and near tip, with up to 20 fine veins plus 2 marginal ribs; beak 1 mm long; stigmas 3. |
rounded to trigonous. |

dark reddish brown with whitish margins. |

Stream banks, bogs, meadows, and open forests, on stable, usually calcareous substrates that are wet in spring but may dry out later. 1600–2500 m. BW. North to AK, east to Newfoundland. Native. Carex concinna is recognized by its hairy perigynia, tiny staminate spike, and absent or tiny inflorescence bract. It lacks basal spikes among the leaf bases. |
Seeps, moist meadows, open woodlands, and ditches, usually in disturbed sites in partial shade, often on serpentine-influenced soils but not in severe serpentine substrates. 0–900 m. CR, Est, Sisk, WV. CA. Native. Carex gynodynama is recognized by its large, lax culms and hairy leaves and perigynia. The other southwestern Oregon sedges with hairy leaves are C. whitneyi and C. mendocinensis, both with glabrous perigynia. Carex gynodynama and C. mendocinensis occasionally hybridize. |
