Suaeda is a genus of plants also known as seepweeds[2] and sea-blites. Most species are confined to saline or alkaline soil habitats, such as coastal salt-flats and tidal wetlands. Many species have thick, succulent leaves, a characteristic seen in various plant genera that thrive in salty habitats (halophile plants).

Suaeda maritima is a species of flowering plant in the family Amaranthaceae known by the common names herbaceous seepweed[2] and annual seablite. It is a yellow-green shrub with fleshy, succulent leaves and green flowers. It grows to about 35 cm in salt marshes. [3] .

Herbaceous sea-blite has a worldwide distribution, but in North America it is confined to the northeast coast. It is found in salt marshes and coastal beaches in New England. There are two varieties in New England, one of which is introduced, while the other is native and rare.

Suaeda maritima ssp. richii, or herbaceous sea-blite, is an annual member of the Amaranth family. It grows prostrate along the ground, forming dense, highly branched mats up to 2½ feet wide. It has skinny, succulent leaves that range between ½ and 2 inches long.

This review comprehensively analyzes the molecular mechanism of Suaeda species under salt stress from aspects of physiology, biochemistry, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, providing a theoretical basis for understanding the salt tolerance of Suaeda.

Suaeda maritima is a ANNUAL growing to 0.3 m (1ft). It is in flower from July to October, and the seeds ripen from August to October. The species is hermaphrodite (has both male and female organs) and is pollinated by Wind.
