Freshen up your home screen with our one-of-a-kind wallpaper featuring the native cordgrasses planted on our Harbor Wetland exhibit.
Excess nitrogen from polluted stormwater runoff can fuel algal and bacterial blooms that can harm wildlife. The roots of the cordgrass planted on Harbor Wetland absorb excess nitrogen directly from the water in the Inner Harbor. The reintroduction of plants like cordgrass provides vital habitat for native species.
