Carex satakeana is a perennial sedge of the Cyperaceae family that is native to Tibet.[1][2]

The grass-like sedge has a sub-woody and short rhizome. The rigid, slender and erect culms have a smooth surface and are triangular in cross-section. The culms typically grow to a length of 5 to 30 cm (2.0 to 11.8 in) and are covered at the base by fibrous brown sheaths. The flat leaves have a pointed tip and tend to be shorter than the culms with linear blades that are 2 to 3 mm (0.079 to 0.118 in) wide.[1]
