Stems erect, green sometimes becoming red, simple or with primary and secondary branches, 5–60 cm, ultimate branches short or long; leaf and bract apices acute, sharply mucronate. Spikes cylindric and slightly torulose, 2–10 cm, with 5–25 fertile segments; bracts almost obscuring cymes. Fertile segments 4–5 × 4.5–6.2 mm, wider than long, widest distally, margins ca. 0.5 mm wide, scarious. Central flower semicircular distally, 2.2–2.8 × 2–2.8 mm, about as long as wide, usually reaching top of segment, only slightly larger than lateral flowers; anthers exserted, dehiscing after exsertion. 2n = 36.
