Question
This may be too early in the season for proper ID, but the time of year, growth habit and habitat seemed unique. In late Feb. this grass was growing in a very shallow pool in a freshwater wetland. The leaves were 12" in length and less than a CM wide. The tips were rounded. Found in SE CT.
Answer
Dear eehrlich11, I'm not sure what you are looking at, the images are not very large, so it is hard to see details. They may be a species of Glyceria (manna grass) with floating leaves. You might want to see if the sheaths are closed (i.e., with fused margins most of their length) to confirm the genus. Good luck.
