Advantages: A good plant Disadvantages: a bit invasive
Reed is a name that is used to describe many similar plants that grow in water.A reed is a plant that is grasslike with long flat leaves. The edges of the reed leaf can sometimes be very sharp .I have actually cut myself on them sometimes .

The Rico reeds tend to take time to break in and once they are suitably moist and playing well, they tend to split and have to be replaced.
The Vandoren reeds are more expensive and they last longer but they tend to be a little bit harder than the Rico ...
