Ficinia acuminata is a grass-like perennial with slender, tufted stems and acuminate leaves that typically arch outwards, creating a fountain effect. Its habitat in moist, sandy soils reflects an adaptation to such environments, often found in coastal regions. The plant produces small, brownish flower spikelets adding subtle texture to the landscape, especially in late summer to autumn, which characterizes its seasonal growth cycle.
