Marram Grass is our native coastal grass and it does a fantastic job of helping to stabilise sand dunes protecting coastal defences.
It grows from a network of underground rhizomes which give it a sturdy anchor to the sand and allow it to spread upwards.
Growing in stiff, hardy clumps the foliage is grey green in colour and it produces light brown flowerheads.
