Grow in permanently moist, fertile soil. Tolerant of saline and thrives in boggy sites. This genus is listed on Schedule 9 of The Wildlife (Northern Ireland) Order (1985) as amended, and on Schedule 3 of the EU (Birds and Natural Habitats) Regulations 2011 in the Republic of Ireland as an invasive non-native species.
