swamp grass
Wetland blade plants
Swamp grass refers broadly to any grass that grows in swampy, marshy, or waterlogged terrain.
The term covers various species—cordgrass, sawgrass, reed canary grass—but is used loosely rather than as a botanical classification: The swamp grass was thick enough to hide an alligator.
It evokes wetland landscapes and the tangled vegetation of bayous and marshes.
