Ischaemum Angustifolium

Ischaemum grass, scientifically known as Ischaemum angustifolium, is a perennial grass species native to temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere. It is characterized by its slender, upright growth habit and narrow, grass-like leaves that often form dense clumps. This plant thrives in a variety of soil types but prefers well-drained conditions and full to partial sunlight. Its small, spike-like inflorescences produce light green to brownish flowers, which are typically wind-pollinated. Ischaemum angustifolium plays a role in stabilizing soils and providing habitat for small invertebrates in its native ecosystems.
