Name: Typha spp. - Schoenoplectus americanus - Scolochloa festucacea Great Plains Freshwater Marsh Group
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: This herbaceous wetland group is found in the semi-arid and parts of the temperate zones of the Great Plains from southern Canada to northern Texas. Herbaceous species, typically between 1 and 2 m tall, dominate. Cover can vary from fairly open to very dense. Woody cover is sparse to absent. <i>Typha</i> spp. and <i>Schoenoplectus</i> spp. are the most common, though many other species can be locally abundant. Sites are usually in basins but can be found along slow-moving streams or rivers. Most sites are flooded with 0.2 to 1 m of water most or all of the growing season except in very dry or wet years.
