With its attractive foliage and delicate flowers this aquatic perennial plant is a desirable option for adding natural beauty and ecological benefits to ponds and other water features.

Myriophyllum crispatum boasts feathery, whorled foliage in a vibrant shade of bright green, which emerges on crisp stems above the water surface. During the months of June to July, it produces small red flowers that add a splash of colour to the aquatic setting.

Although similar in looks to Myriophyllum aquaticum (which is an invasive, non-native species), this aquatic species is much less prolific and provides oxygenation for ponds and underwater growth which provides habitat for pond life.
