Garden Affair : Ornamental Aquatic Plants

 It is fascinating to grow plants in water .This is evident that presence of water plant adds charm in the Garden and helps in maintaining moisture level in the Garden .While the Flowering aquatic plants like lily and lotus needs proper sunlight and care for blooms. There are many aquatic ornamental plants that doesn't bear flowers but there beautiful ornamental leaves add to so much beauty in to the Garden .

I have been growing  few varieties of these ornamental aquatic plants from quite years now .

This is a pennywort plant it is said so due to resemblance of leaves  with Penny or coin 

                                                                    






Aquatic Cypres Plant 

This beautiful thin stems plant sends new stems throughout the year which bears inflorescence on the head .

There are many other ornamental aquatic  plants like Pistia ,Salvinia which can be also grown in the shade for adding beauty in the Garden.

  4. I love aquatic plants but I never had much luck growing them in my own small pond. Or they last for one season, but never come back.

  11. Beautiful plants! Thanks for the invitation, will join, when I have a garden related posts.
    Haven't experience with aquatic plants - my garden is a hilly garden and it is very dry here, in last 3 years we've missed some rain, as normally. Our climate is no more normally...

  12. Very happy to find your blog! Thank you for visiting the running wave! I thought the leaves in your first photo looked like pennywort and one of your other messages confirms it! A lovely little plant which grows wild through our wetlands here in Scotland!
