Narrative
After drying the stems are still flexible and therefore easy to thresh. At collection time, males still in bloom, most leaves had fallen. Plants 25 to 50 cm tall, most have one erect stem and approximately nine horizontal stems. Varying amounts of red coloring on stems, utricles, and male tepals. Sample size 15 plants. Plants dioecious.
