Waldgräser

In comparison to meadow grasses, forest grasses truly lead a shadowy existence: while the former shape grasslands and steppe landscapes and serve worldwide as the most important food and forage plants, the latter are hardly noticed. However, forestry practitioners have long been aware of the significance of forest grasses. Together with other forest floor plants, they provide valuable insights into site characteristics. Knowledge of these plants is of great benefit to anyone who is deeply engaged with the forest. "Forest Grasses" is therefore aimed at forestry professionals, site specialists, students of forestry, biology, and landscape ecology, as well as plant enthusiasts, nature lovers, and interested forest walkers.
