Baloskion longipes

Restio longipes L.A.S.Johnson & O.D.Evans Baloskion longipes, common name dense cordrush,[1] is a dioecious perennial herb in the Restionaceae family, found in southeastern New South Wales.

The spikelets on the lower part of the flower head are not crowded, but borne on fine branches, which may be several centimetres long.

The male spikelets are ovate and 4–8 mm long, with six tepals, three stamens and a minute pistillode.

The female spikelets are ovate to elliptic and 8.5–9.3 mm long, with four tepals and two staminodes.

[2][3] The specific epithet, longipes, derives from the Latin words longus meaning "long" and pes meaning "foot" or "stalk", giving an adjective which describes the plant as having a long stalk.
