Juncus Maritimus Subsp. Acutus

Juncus maritimus subsp. acutus is a distinctive flowering plant commonly found in coastal and brackish wetlands. It thrives in saline environments, often growing along shorelines and in tidal zones. This subspecies is characterized by its slender, grass-like leaves and small, clustered flowers. Its ability to tolerate salt and fluctuating water levels makes it an important part of coastal ecosystems. Despite its modest appearance, it plays a vital role in stabilizing soil and supporting local wildlife.
