Rice Cut Grass is a 3' to 5' tall native perennial cool season grass that features exceptionally sharp small teeth on leaf margins that can do serious damage to flesh or clothing. Rice Cut Grass is a wetland plant most commonly found near ponds, swamps, ditches, beaver ponds, or other habitats where the soil is saturated most of the year. It tolerates full sun or partial shade. It spreads by creeping rhizomes and can form dense colonies. Rice Cut Grass is valuable for wildlife food and cover, wetland restoration, erosion control, and treatment of soil contaminants.
