Grey's (Morningstar) Sedge |
The spikeball feels light and papery, like a little origami. The filaments extending from each spike are sharp so the spikeball is not a lot of fun to put in your mouth. Each individual spike is grasslike and nearly hollow, and contains a tiny seed. The seeds are tender and don't taste bitter so I guess they're OK to eat. A better use for the spikeballs is probably as ornamental accents in bouquets.
