Rhynchospora chinensis is a perennial in sunny wetlands, ponds, sides, etc. The plant bodies grow in clusters to 40-100cm in height, with slender and erect stems and sparsely alternating leaves. The leaves are shorter than the stems, narrowly linear, about 3.5mm wide, with the upper parts ridged and tips sharp. Inflorescences are corymbose and set themselves 3-6, and lower ones somewhat hang. Spikelets are 7-9mm long, broadly lanceolate-shaped, brown to dark brown, and not glossy, comprising single florets covered with some scales.
