No. The fruit of reed is caryopsis, lanceolate, with persistent style at the top. With long and thick creeping rhizomes, it is mainly propagated by rhizomes. Reed is a common waterside plant or dry pond. Reed is often confused with cold mountain. The difference is that the stem of reed is hollow, but the cold awn is not. In addition, cold awns can be seen everywhere, and reeds are born of water.

Reed (scientific name: Australian reed (CAV). )Trin. Ex Steud。 ) is a tall grass that has been aquatic or humid for many years, and its roots are very developed. The culm is erect, 1-3 meters high, with more than 20 nodes. The lower part of leaf sheath is shorter than the upper part and the internodes are longer; A circle of short fiber hairs about 1 mm long is densely planted at the edge of the tongue, which is easy to fall off; The leaves are needle-shaped, hairless, with long tips and tapering into filaments. Panicle is large and has many branches; Spikelets glabrous; The two ridges of palea are rough; Anthers yellow; The caryopsis is about 65438 0.5 mm long.

Reed is a multi-type species widely distributed in the world. Born in rivers and lakes, ponds and ditches, low wetlands.

Many kinds of reeds are at the water's edge, and they are especially beautiful to watch in the flowering season. Reed plays an important role in purifying sewage, because its leaves, leaf sheaths, stems, rhizomes and adventitious roots all have aeration tissues. Reed stems are tough and high in fiber content, which is a rare raw material for paper industry.
