Default plants in water bowl

This question is from my wife...

She saw on a cable tv program some plants that were growing in a

living
room in a nice water bowl, apparently these plants were very

colorfull
and could live for long periods .. this is as much as I know.

I guess will be some pond plant that can be grown indoors... any

idea?

The only very colourful plant that I can think of is Coleus. They
will grow for years in water but should really be in a pot in potting
mix.


I get the impression that the Op means the leaves were under water too!

There are some water plants which have deep red leaves
