Scirpus atrovirens (Dark-green Bulrush)
Dark-green Bulrush will form clumps from rhizomes and fibrous roots in the wettest of soils. We have nearly 200 species on our website that tolerate saturated (oxygen-deficient) soils at least periodically but only a few will tolerate water depths of 1' or more like this Bulrush will. It is a good choice for a lakeshore restoration, pond construction or rain garden.

It is a 'cool season grass'; it actively grows during the spring and fall when soil temperatures are cool.  Another name commonly used is simply Green Bulrush.
