Flowering Rush
Flowering rush is a Eurasian plant species known for its linear, pointed leaves and pink flowers. It is not a true rush but rather an aquatic plant with swordlike leaves that grow on the margins of still and slowly moving water. The plant has an umbel-like inflorescence consisting of a single terminal flower surrounded by three cymes. The flowers are regular and bisexual, with pink petal-like sepals and larger petals.
