Water Lettuce – Pistia stratiotes (Pre-Order)

Floating Plants available April 1 – September 30

These plants grow simply by floating on the water surface. They do NOT require planting. These plants help control algae by shading the water and utilizing dissolved nutrients that would otherwise be used by algae for growth.

Rosette of velvety blue-green leaves. Trailing roots remove excess nutrients and help purify water. Lettuce will create shade and provide a spawning medium for fish. Does well in partial shade.
