Unidentified Marginal??
A plant we can't identify has just appeared in the shallow end of our
pond. I suspect it has been delivered by the birds which bathe in this area. Looks more like a wild flower than a cultivated, garden plant. ~16 cm tall with 4-5 thin (2-3 mm), grass-green, cylindrical, unjointed leaves opening in top few cm to a grass like appearance. 3 flowers in an umbel at the top of 12 cm stem. Each flower, ~1 cm across, has 3 white petals, no obvious sepals, around a clump of yellow stamens. The flower is very reminiscent of Frogbit but leaves are completely wrong and it is rooted, not floating. Overall structure reminiscent of a water plantain but leaves don't seem right? We're in SE Bedfordshire. Sorry, no electronic picture. Any ideas? Thanks for any suggestions. -- Larry Stoter |
