Carex Salina F. Caespitosa
Salt marsh sedge, scientifically known as Carex salina f. caespitosa, is a resilient plant species commonly found in coastal wetlands. It thrives in brackish environments where freshwater and saltwater mix, making it an important component of estuarine ecosystems. This plant plays a vital role in stabilizing shorelines and providing habitat for various wildlife species. Its dense growth pattern helps filter pollutants and reduce erosion in tidal areas. Despite its hardy nature, it faces threats from climate change and human activity.
