You definitely have two species of Sagittaria (= wapato = water potato)
there.

Cannot determine exactly which species because the diagnostic floral
characters are not visible in the pictures.

Both probably have tuberous rootstocks.

Look them up in a flora of the Pacific Northwest.

Please take a look and tell me what these are. Located at a lake outside
Portland Oregon. I believe one is wapato... but which? And what is the
other? They are growing in the same area, are similar in size and have
similar flowers.

Thanks in advance.
