Turtle grass is dioecious, which means that there are separate male and female plants, each which produce an imperfect flower containing only one sex.

One of the outcomes of plant reproduction is the generation of seeds, spores, and fruits [13] that allow plants to move to new locations or new habitats. [14] Plants do not have nervous systems or any will for their actions. Even so, scientists are able to observe mechanisms that help their offspring thrive as they grow.

Grass carp require long rivers for the survival of the eggs and very young fish, and the eggs are thought to die if they sink to the bottom.

Reports of the plant's height vary; estimates include up to 60 cm (24 in), [5] 15–75 cm (5.9–29.5 in), [6] and up to 100 cm (39 in). [2] E. angustifolium has "stiff grass-like foliage" consisting of long, narrow solidly dark green leaves, which have a single central groove, and narrow from their 2–6-millimetre (0.08–0.24 in) wide base ...
