Carex × Clausa
The genus ''Carex'', the sedges, is one of the largest genera of flowering plants, containing around 1800 species, according to a 2004 estimate. All the species (including hybrid species) accepted by ''The Plant List'' are given below: In May 2015, the Global Carex Group argued for a broader circumscription of Carex, proposing the addition of all species currently classified in ''Cymophyllus'' (1 species), ''Kobresia'' (c. 60 species), ''Schoenoxiphium'' (c. 15 species) and ''Uncinia'' (c. 70 species) to those already classified as ''Carex''.

''Carex'' is a vast genus of more than 2,000 species of grass-like plants in the family Cyperaceae, commonly known as sedges (or seg, in older books). Other members of the family Cyperaceae are also called sedges, however those of genus ''Carex'' may be called true sedges, and it is the most species-rich genus in the family. The study of ''Carex'' is known as caricology. Description All species of ''Carex'' are perennial, although some species, such as '' C. bebbii'' and '' C. viridula'' can fruit in their first year of growth, and may not survive longer. They typically have rhizomes, stolons or short rootstocks, but some species grow in tufts (caespitose). The culm – the flower-bearing stalk – is unbranched and usually erect. It is usually distinctly triangular in section. The leaves of ''Carex'' comprise a blade, which extends away from the stalk, and a sheath, which encloses part of the stalk. The blade is normally long and flat, but may be folded, inrolled, cha ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
