Other: Slough Grass is a native wetland plant that thrives in marshes, swamps, floodplains, streambanks, or pondside. It can grow in standing water and adapts to any soil from sand to clay. Slough Grass forms clumps that provide habitat for waterfowl, and water birds enjoy eating the seeds. The grass is ornamental with large flowering spikes that turn into big fat seed heads in the fall. The dried seed spikes are often used in floral arrangements.
