Add Your Opinion About This Plant
Good addition to ponds, in addition to a sweet flower and providing overhead shelter for fish, they propagate so much faster than waterlilies. The parent leaf will send off both flowers and new leaves which will then become new plants. In climates less than subtropical, they grow well but will experience a winter dormancy, where they will lose leaves to retain just roots, sink to the bottom of the pond, and emerge next spring. Can grow either rooted in pots or free floating.
