Description: | This species occurs throughout Europe and Asia. It forms dense prickly clumps of sharply pointed leaves that grow up to about a metre high. It produces small tufts of brown flowers that grow sideways out from the stem. The seeds germinate in damp conditions on a wide variety of soils, frequently alongside ponds and rivers. However, the plant does not require wet soil once it is established. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | plants natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
