This is a perennial herb growing from a <\/span>caudex<\/span><\/a> in the water or mud. It produces lance-shaped leaves 12 to 20 centimeters long and 4 wide on long <\/span>petioles<\/span><\/a>; leaves which remain submerged in water are smaller and less prominently veined. The <\/span>inflorescence<\/span><\/a> is mostly erect and up to half a meter tall.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is a wide array of small pink-petalled flowers, which open in the morning, from June until August. The fruit is a tiny <\/span>achene<\/span><\/a> up to 2 or 3 millimeters long clustered into an aggregate fruit of about 20 units.<\/span><\/p>\n

The water plantain Alisma plantago-aquatica<\/a><\/i> has acute leaf tips not tapering to a stalk.[7]<\/span><\/a><\/sup><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
