Marshes dominated by Typha latifolia occur in different types of mesotrophic to eutrophic wetlands, such as littoral zones of fishponds and water reservoirs, oxbows and alluvial pools, sand pits in an advanced stage of terrestrialization, lentic sections of rivers, ditches, channels and flooded depressions on arable land. Water depths are usually within the range of 10–60(–100) cm, but the habitat can dry out in summer. In contrast to early successional Typhetum angustifoliae, this association is confined to habitats in a later stage of wetland succession, which are characterized by accumulation of organic sediment on the bottom. Typhetum latifoliae occurs in lowland to submontane areas across the Czech Republic.
