At maturity, Bur Reed Grass can reach heights nearing 12 feet, creating a refuge for wildlife, as well as a source of nourishment. The stem of the Bur Reed floats or emerges from its damp surroundings, branching out into arched leaves that resemble straps. The flowers of the Bur-Reed Grass are sphere-like and can be both male or female. It is the mace-like appearance of the prickly flowers, in fact, that gives the Bur Reed Grass its distinctive name.
