Dwarf bulrush distinguishes itself as the diminutive member of its genus, generally reaching heights of merely 18 inches (46 cm). Its slender leaves are structured in a grass-like, linear fashion, mostly emanating from the plant's base, displaying an upright growth pattern. A characteristic central flower stalk, devoid of branches, staunchly arises, culminating in two separate botanical segments - the upper portion bearing yellowish male flowers, while the greenish female flowers sit directly beneath, possibly separated by a small gap. During the summer bloom, these flowers uniquely distribute, with male flowers vanishing post-pollination, leaving a naked stalk tip. The fertilized female flowers later morph into a deep brown hue, as they mature into rounded, succinct seed spikes about 2 inches (5 cm) long. As the colder seasons encroach, the foliage transforms to a yellow-brown.
