Grasses

Unlike exotic grasses, most of the grasses here at Tumbi Wetlands grow in tufts or tussocks. Of all the species listed to the left, only Entolasia marginata (or Bordered Panic Grass) and Oplismenus species ( or Basket grasses) have the ability to run strongly with rhizomes or stolons, or by rooting at the nodes. Native grasses are also more likely to feel that the stems are rough, as opposed to smooth stemmed exotic grasses.
