Agrostis Aenea
Common bentgrass, scientifically known as Agrostis aenea, is a low-growing grass species commonly found in temperate regions. It thrives in moist, well-drained soils and is often seen in lawns, golf courses, and along stream banks. This plant is characterized by its fine, tufted leaves and compact growth habit, making it a popular choice for ornamental and turfgrass applications. While it provides ecological benefits by stabilizing soil and supporting insect life, it can also become invasive in certain environments. Its resilience and adaptability make it both a useful and sometimes problematic plant in various landscapes.
