Spergularia Salina Var. Sordida

Salt marsh sandplant, scientifically known as Spergularia salina var. sordida, is a hardy flowering plant that thrives in the challenging conditions of coastal salt marshes. It is characterized by its small, inconspicuous flowers and succulent, salt-tolerant leaves that help it survive in brackish environments. This plant plays a vital role in stabilizing soil and providing habitat for various marine and terrestrial organisms. Its ability to withstand high salinity and periodic flooding makes it an essential component of salt marsh ecosystems. Despite its modest appearance, the Salt marsh sandplant is a resilient and ecologically significant species found along many coastlines.
