Appearance
Upon every stem grows a single round, white, and wooly fruit. The seeds are covered in this cottony mass and usually disperse when the wind carries them away. It has narrow, grass-like leaves.This plant is food for migrating snow geese and caribou and their calves. The Inuit used the seed heads as wicks in seal oil lamps. Clumps were placed into babies' pants and then thrown away when soiled.
