Dry, acidic, sandy or rocky soil, often with aspens or jack pine; often appearing after disturbance.
The thinner perigynia and papillose leaf sheaths (at high magnification) will distinguish this species from C. molesta and C. brevior. The perigynia are often not as membranous as those of C. bicknellii. This is often a large, striking species and is much more frequent northwards. Although usually erect, in robust clumps some inflorescences can be arching or even nodding.
