wetland plants

Wetland plants are specially adapted plants that thrive in areas where the land is saturated with water, such as marshes, swamps, and bogs. They have unique features like tolerant roots, floating leaves, or specialized structures to handle wet conditions and oxygen-poor soils. These plants play crucial roles in filtering water, preventing floods, supporting wildlife, and maintaining healthy ecosystems. Examples include cattails, reeds, and duckweed. Their presence indicates healthy wetlands, which are important for biodiversity, water quality, and climate regulation.
