Please try our next iteration of the Michigan Flora Online here. Beginning on February 1, 2023, michiganflora.net will point to this new site.
The new site offers several benefits over the existing website, including real coordinate mapping, giving a clearer view of the density of documentation as well as more precision about plant distributions and their link to landforms. We will also have the ability to update species pages more regularly, both in terms of new collections and as more existing Michigan specimens are georeferenced. In addition, we have a better photo display, and offer indented keys.

In cedar swamps and other coniferous forests and boggy places, as well as deciduous and mixed forests, especially on wet seepy slopes, in depressions and clearings, and along forest roads. Very local southward.
The panicle is normally green. A few specimens (especially from the Keweenaw Peninsula and Isle Royale) have the panicle rather conspicuously tinged with purplish. See also notes under Cinna arundinacea.
