Narrowleaf Marsh Elder, also called Narrowleaf Sumpweed, is found in disturbed areas
that are seasonally moist. It may form extensive mats that may reach 4 feet in height. The
leaves are about 1 to 2 inches long and narrow, giving the species its name. The rather
inconspicuous greenish flowers, occurring from early September through October, are
located in the leaf axils above the long, narrow bracts. Although the flowers are windpollinated, this species is of rather modest importance in causing allergy.
