Butomus umbellatus
Butomus umbellatus, in Dutch called swan flower, is a high upright, rhizome-spreading, deciduous, water or marsh plant with long, narrow, stiff green leaves, which are strangely triangular at the bottom. Swan flower blooms from May to August with whitish pink flowers arranged in 15cm umbel-like flowers on long rounded flower stems. Butomus umbellatus prefers a position in full sun or partial shade and a water depth of minimum 5 to maximum 45 cm. The acidity of the soil is not that important, although the swan flower feels at its best in reasonably "greasy" clay soil. This plant is hardy and disease resistant and gives a nice vertical accent to the pond planting.
