A hardy native grass commonly found along coastal areas, Ammophila arenaria proliferates through resilient rhizomes, forming dense clusters of narrow, greyish-green leaves that remain throughout the year. Its leafy stems can reach heights of 1.2 meters and bear compact beige flowerheads during the summer months. This species is frequently used for stabilizing shifting sand dunes and serves as a food source for various moth caterpillars.
