Tamarisk is an endangered flowering shrub that grows on riversides and roadsides. Because a large part of its range includes the banks of the Yangtze River, the Three Gorges Dam has dramatically influenced its habitat. Interestingly, constant seasonal flooding has pushed the tamarisk to evolve by developing increased resistance to flooding stress.
German tamarisk is a self-supporting, tall evergreen shrub that is flood tolerant yet suffering from native habitat loss. German tamarisk is a late summer/early autumn bloomer that is typically found in gravelly ground by braided rivers.
