Water and swamp plants

Water and swamp plants

The aquatic plants or hydrophytes are plants adapted to a temporary or continuous existence wholly or largely under water (submers or emers). They have morphological adaptations that allow them to survive. While the 'true' aquatic plants do not root in the soil and can often live underwater (with the exception of the inflorescences), the helophytes or marsh plants root in the soil and usually rise above the surface of the water.

Houttuynia cordata
Houttuynia cordata is a perennial that blooms with white flowers from June to August.
It is a ground cover that, however, can proliferate with the underground foothills. Both the white root shoots and the leaves have a distinctive scent that is perceived as unpleasant by many gardeners. The Dutch name of swamp anemone indicates that it is a plant that also thrives on the pond edge in wet soil and even in shallow water up to 10cm.
The swamp anemone can be propagated by division, but once you have this plant in the garden, you don't really have to put in a lot of effort to get enough plants due to the enormous expansion drive of the plant.
