Description
Eriocapitella rivularis is a perennial herbaceous plant with a rhizome-like root structure. It is a clump-forming plant with 3–5 basal leaves, each with a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long, occasionally up to Шаблон:Cvt long. The leaf blades are lobed with three sections. Each leaf, being wider than it is long, has the overall shape of a pentagon. In addition to the basal leaves, there are 1–3 flowering stems, each Шаблон:Cvt long, occasionally up to Шаблон:Cvt long. A whorl of 3 or 4 leaves (technically bracts) wraps around each stem. The stem leaves are similar in appearance to the basal leaves but somewhat smaller. Multiple (3–5) pubescent flower stalks rise directly from the stem leaves, each stalk being Шаблон:Cvt long. The single flower at the end of each stalk has 5–10 sepals, but no petals. Each sepal is Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide. The petal-like sepals are usually white, tinged with blue on the reverse. There are 30–60 pistils in the center of the flower, surrounded by stamens Шаблон:Cvt long, tipped with steel-blue anthers. The fruits are beaked achenes Шаблон:Cvt long, ovoid in shape with hooked styles.Шаблон:R
In its native habitat, E. rivularis flowers from May to August. Each flower is approximately Шаблон:Cvt in diameter.Шаблон:R
