saw grass

Frequently we had to turn aside to avoid the swampy ponds fringed with saw-grass.

Every few hundred yards they saw grass ponds, or little sandy-bottomed lakes of crystal-clear water.

Nest of strips of rushes woven together to form a platform and fastened to saw grass growing on the bank of a stream.

You never saw grass as tall as this unless youve been in the jungle or South America or someplace where grass grows this high.

The saw-grass was so high as partially to protect the bodies of our men from view; but the fire was very fatal.
