Ammophila breviligulata (Beach/Dune Grass)

Ammophila breviligulata, also known as Beach/Dune Grass, is a vigorous rhizomatous grass native to coastal areas of North America. It forms dense clumps with long, arching leaves that are gray-green in color. This grass is well-adapted to sandy and poor soil conditions, making it ideal for stabilizing dunes and preventing erosion. It is salt tolerant and can withstand strong winds, making it suitable for coastal gardens.
