Tips
Cotton grass inspires with a long flowering period. Under normal weather conditions
the starting shot for the flowering period falls in
April. At this time are more likely to form
inconspicuous, white spikes with one
Length from 1.5 to 3.0 cm. In the course of
The white ones develop in May and June
Wool hairs that can reach a length of up to 5 cm. Each flower stalk appears to have a white one
Wool hat put on.
Only the summer wind prepares that
Spectacle an end, because the
Silky hairs help the seeds to fly and float with the mature ones
fruits of it. Following the
landing, the white hairs fall off the black seeds.
