T. angustifolia often occurs in deeper water than T. latifolia, and is more tolerant of wetlands with low eutrophication conditions. [4] [3] The two species can produce hybrids, named as Typha × glauca (Typha angustifolia x T. latifolia); it is a sterile F1 hybrid, which reproduces only vegetatively, forming clonal colonies, which may be ...
Typha / ˈ t aɪ f ə / is a genus of about 30 species of monocotyledonous flowering plants in the family Typhaceae.These plants have a variety of common names, in British English as bulrush [4] or (mainly historically) reedmace, [5] in American English as cattail, [6] or punks, in Australia as cumbungi or bulrush, in Canada as bulrush or cattail, and in New Zealand as raupō, bullrush, [7 ...
Typha x glauca is an invasive hybrid species that originates as a cross between parent species, Typha angustifolia and Typha latifolia. T. latifolia is a broad-leaved cattail and T. angustifolia is a narrow-leaved cattail. [2] The structure of Typha x glauca is an intermediate of its two parent species. It is an erect and emergent wetland plant ...

Salt marsh showing salt pannes and ponds, spartina alternifolia and invasive phragmites communis in foreground. Brackish marsh panne variants occur in brackish marshes (short graminoid variant), one of the native dominant species is spike grass (Distichlis spicata), some brackish marsh pannes are dominated by the narrow-leaved cattail (Typha angustifolia) an invasive exotic species.
Local people depend on the wetlands for fish and bullrushes (Typha angustifolia), which are harvested for basketry and house roofs. [2] The Bedo wetlands were declared a Ramsar site in 2007, covering an area of 1,692 ha. [2]
Water hyacinth, water lilies, and Typha angustifolia reed beds are found in the marshes and streams. The vegetation mainly consists of Acacia scrubs including Dichrostachys cinerea, Randia dumetorum, Ziziphus sp., Gymnosporia emarginata, Carissa spinarum, Capparis zeylanica and Cassia spp.
Under such conditions the plant may be considered aggressive since it interferes with preservation of the salt marsh habitat. [ 16 ] [ 18 ] T. latifolia shares its range with other related species, and hybridizes with Typha angustifolia (lesser bulrush or narrow-leaf cattail) to form Typha × glauca ( T. angustifolia × T. latifolia ).
