Plants (8-)20-50 cm high, with fusiform bulbs; bulbs covered in dry, rather stiff, brown or black fibres, these up to 3 cm long, usually separate, sometimes fused into layers. Leaves as long as or longer than plant height, 1-3 mm wide. Inflorescences dense to lax, with (8-)15-50 flowers. Flowers 1.5-3 mm long, rarely longer. Pedicels 2-10 mm long, diverging at angles of 45-90o from the inflorescence axis, not or only slightly curved inwards towards the apex, but often fruits bent further upwards. Infructescences 6-20 cm long. Fruits narrowly ovoid, 5-10(-12) mm long, 1-2 mm wide. Mericarps connate at the carpophore; tips slightly curved outwards.

Triglochin bulbosa subsp. bulbosa differs from the other subspecies in having wider leaves (1-3 mm vs. < 1 mm wide) and wider fruits (1-2 mm vs. < 1 mm wide). The plants are more robust and often larger than those of the other subspecies. From: Kocke, AV; von Mering, S; Mucina, L; Kadereit, JW. 2010.

Found in temporary wetlands, such as edges of vernal pools, in ditches and in other depressions, mainly in vegetation types classified as Cape Vernal Pools and Cape Inland Saltpans, and rarely also Swartland Granite Renosterveld. The habitats are characterised by heavy clayey to lighter clayey-sandy soils, derived from nutrient-rich substrates such as shale, granite or geologically young sandy sediments of marine origin covering coastal lowlands; here it is often found in clay-filled depressions among stabilised sandy dunes. Waterlogging seems to be a major habitat-structuring factor. The taxon was found at altitudes of up to 500 m (Cederberg Mountains), but most localities are limited to altitudes below 100 m a.s.l.

Endemic to South Africa, restricted to the Western Cape Province and southern regions (Hantam) of the Northern Cape Province. From: Kocke, AV; von Mering, S; Mucina, L; Kadereit, JW. 2010.
