Waxy mannagrass
Glyceria declinata
Waxy mannagrass is an aquatic or semi-aquatic perennial grass best suited to the edges of ponds, streams, and boggy ground where soil remains wet or submerged. Plant it in full sun to partial shade and ensure a constant supply of moisture, as it will not tolerate dry conditions. It requires little maintenance once established and provides attractive texture along water features.
