A species of grass-like herbaceous perennial native to the USA and often found in the boggy areas of Alabama, to around 80cm in height, with rosettes of lance-shaped green foliage. From May to July, upright, slender stems produce golden-yellow, bell-shaped, grainy-textured flowers which are clustered tightly along the top of the stems. Not often found in cultivation due to its reliance on moist, very acidic, nutrient-poor soils
