#1010 They called me Eleocharis palustris, also known as Eleocharis palustris var. lindbergii, Scirpus bailii, Eleocharis palustris subsp. lindbergii, Eleocharis lindbergii, and Eleocharis baronii. I pay homage to the male botanists Harald Lindberg, Bail (I couldn’t find his records), and P. Alexis Baron. They first catalogued me in 1817.
