Pipewort or Bog Button

Eriocaulon decangulare

Description:

Pipeworts are bog or aquatic herbs with a crowded head of tiny flowers on a long, leafless stalk.

Habitat:

The Mississippi Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge is part of the Gulf Coast Refuge Complex, which includes Grand Bay NWR and Bon Secour NWR. The refuge was established in 1975 under authority of the Endangered Species Act to protect the critically endangered Mississippi sandhill cranes and their unique, and itself endangered, wet pine savanna habitat.

Notes:

This pipewort is found in peat and sand that is moist to wet and associated with savannahs, bogs, low pinelands, ditches and the banks of cypress domes.
