Typha latifolia
Bulrushes sway in the wind. This aquatic plant blooms in summer, specifically July and August in Alaska.
Seen in a freshwater marsh with many ducks around in the Chugach region. Native to N. America.
No other Typha species have been reported from Alaska. If you’re stranded somewhere in the wilderness, parts of this plant are edible. :)
