Poteridium

Poteridium exhibits a resilient structure well-adapted to fluctuating wetland environments. Characterized by its slender, elongated stems and sparse, fine leaves, it thrives where moisture is abundant yet can withstand periods of drier conditions. This tall, grass-like appearance, combined with its clustered growth pattern, makes it a distinctive presence in its native habitats.
