Elymus Arenarius Subsp. Geniculatus

Elymus arenarius subsp. geniculatus is a lesser-known grass species that thrives in arid and sandy environments. This subspecies is characterized by its compact growth habit and distinctive, often twisted inflorescence. It is commonly found in coastal dunes and dry grasslands across the Mediterranean and parts of Asia. Despite its limited distribution, it plays an important ecological role in stabilizing soil and supporting local wildlife. Its resilience to harsh conditions makes it a valuable subject for botanical and ecological studies.
