Description

The Typha domingensis, commonly known as Southern Cattail, is a perennial aquatic plant characterized by its erect, simple, cylindric stems and long, narrow leaves that are ascending with blades that are C-shaped or planoconvex in cross-section proximally and flat distally. This species thrives in marshes, swamps, and wetlands across temperate and tropical regions worldwide, often forming dense colonies through its creeping rhizomes. Notably, Typha domingensis is utilized in various cultural practices, such as the production of "Khirret," a dessert made from its pollen in the Mesopotamian Marshes of southern Iraq.

Erect, simple, cylindric stems with no air cavities.
Leaves with C-shaped or planoconvex blades proximally and flat distally.
Ability to form dense colonies in shallow water through creeping rhizomes.
