Small particles resembling mosquitoes will occasionally float around Swamp Reeds.

Swamp Reeds will naturally grow upwards, and grow a third faster when underwater. They can grow up to four blocks high on land, but if underwater can grow infinitely up to the surface of the water, as well as three additional blocks into the air.

When broken, Swamp Reeds drop a Swamp Reed item. The blocks themselves cannot be collected.
