The rhizomatous sedge typically grows to a height of 0.5 metres (1.6 ft) and to about 0.3 m (1.0 ft) wide. In Western Australia it is found along the coast on steep slopes as two separate populations in the Peel and Great Southern regions where it grows in sandy-clay-loam soils over or around granite.[1]
