spicata is a common native plant of saltmarshes and
sometimes other saline places. Its leaves are very
distinctive - they have a long petiole, and the lamina is
quite broad and is connected to the petiole with a
non-mobile joint. The plant has a rosette of these leaves
which produce a leafy spike of flowers that may be about
half a metre tall. |
