Reed is a common name for several tall, grass-like plants of wetlands.

Quotes

  • Those tall flowering-reeds which stand,
    In Arno like a sheaf of sceptres, left
    By some remote dynasty of dead gods.
    • Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Aurora Leigh (1856), Book VII, reported in Hoyt's New Cyclopedia Of Practical Quotations (1922), p. 660.
