OTHER USES AND VALUES :
If autogenic changes are slow, three-flowered rush may be useful as an
indicator of global climatic changes [14].
MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS :
The fragile, boggy habitat of three-flowered rush should be protected
from trampling [13]. Three-flowered rush had 2 percent greater cover on
a 35-year-old oil spill than on undisturbed sites. This indicates that
the species was at least resilient to, if not benefited by, a reduction
in competition. Water-soaked roots are protected from hydrocarbons
[10].
