    Floating heart-shaped, somewhat mottled foliage quickly spreads to form a carpet from which upright stems emerge in summer, each topped with small fringed yellow flowers. Being such a fast grower, it is useful for adding interest to a newly established pond while slower plants are still becoming established.

  • Garden care: Happiest in still water, it should not be planted near a pond pump or fountain. Cut back to size if it gets too large and separate plantlets that have formed on runners in summer.
