Brasenia schreberi is
a perennial aquatic plant that grows in ponds or wetlands,
possessing a viscous substance covering its stems, peduncles, and
the underside of its leaves. The leaves float on the water's surface
and are in a 5-10cm-long oblong shape; the bottom sides are tinged
purple. The flowers are purple-brown, measuring 2cm in length.
Enveloped in a jelly-like substance, sprouts and young leaves are
edible and make for a worthwhile treat as dainty bites. Bloom time:
May-August. |
