Sagittaria
''Sagittaria'' is a genus of about 303. Sagittaria Linnaeus ''Flora of North America'' species of aquatic plants whose members go by a variety of common names, including arrowhead, duck potato, katniss, Omodaka (沢瀉 in Japanese), swamp potato, tule potato, and wapato (or wapatoo). Most are native to South America, South, Central America, Central, and North America, but there are also some from Europe, Africa, and Asia. Description Sagittaria plant stock (the perennial rhizome) is a horizontal creeper (stoloniferous) and obliquely obovate, the margins winged, with apical or ventral beak; in other words, they are a small, dry, one-seeded fruit that do not open to release the seed, set on a slant, narrower at the base, with winged edges, and havi ...[...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Sagittaria Cuneata
''Sagittaria cuneata'' is a species of flowering plant in the water plantain family known by the common name arumleaf arrowhead or duck potato. Like some other ''Sagittaria'' species, it may be called wapato. It is native to much of North America, including most of Canada (every province and territory except Nunavut) as well as the western and northeastern United States (New England, Great Lakes, Great Plains, Rocky Mountain, Great Basin and Pacific Coast states; including Alaska but not Hawaii). ''Sagittaria cuneata'' is an aquatic plant, growing in slow-moving and stagnant water bodies such as ponds and small streams. It is quite variable in appearance, and submerged parts of the plant look different from those growing above the surface or on land. In general it is a perennial herb growing from a white or blue-tinged tuber. The leaves are variable in shape, many of them sagittate (arrow-shaped) with two smaller, pointed lobes opposite the tip. The leaf blades are borne on very ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sagittaria Lancifolia
''Sagittaria lancifolia'', the bulltongue arrowhead, is a perennial, monocot plant in the family Alismataceae, genus ''Sagittaria'', with herbaceous growth patterns. It is native to the southeastern United States. It is known from every coastal state from Delaware to Texas. The species is also considered native to Mexico, Central America, the West Indies and northern South America. It has become naturalized on the Island of Java in Indonesia. A common name is "duck potato" because of the large potato-like corms which can form underground. Description The plant is conspicuous for its large, lance-shaped leaves which grow up from underground rhizomes and its showy, white three-petaled flowers which form at the end of long, thick stalks. Each flower has three green sepals, three white or pink-tinged petals, at least six stamens, and pistils which may be in separate flowers. The plant likes to grow in fresh or brackish water and is commonly found in ditches, marshes, swamps an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sagittaria Graminea
''Sagittaria graminea'', the grassy arrowhead or grass-leaved arrowhead, is an aquatic plant species native to eastern North America. Description It is a perennial herb up to tall with narrow, grass-like leaves about in length and wide. A very thin flower-bearing stalk raises to about above water. The flowers are about wide, with three petals and three sepals; typically the upper flowers only have stamens (male), while lower flowers have only pistils (female). The seeds appear in a head about 1.5 cm wide. Subspecies A long list of varietal and subspecific names have been proposed over the years. Most have either been elevated to the species level or relegated to synonymy. As of April 2014, only two are recognized: *''Sagittaria graminea'' subsp. ''graminea'' *''Sagittaria graminea'' subsp. ''weatherbiana'' (Fernald) R.R.Haynes & Hellq. Distribution and habitat The species is known from every Canadian province from Ontario to Newfoundland, and every US state from t ...

Sagittaria Sagittifolia
''Sagittaria sagittifolia'' (also called arrowhead due to the shape of its leaves) is a flowering plant in the family Alismataceae, native to wetlands most of Europe from Ireland and Portugal to Finland and Bulgaria, and in Russia, Ukraine, Siberia, Japan, Turkey, China, India, Australia, Vietnam and the Caucasus.

The leaves above water are arrowhead-shaped, the leaf blade 15–25 cm long and 10–22 cm broad, on a long petiole holding the leaf up to 45 cm above water level. The plant also has narrow linear submerged leaves, up to 80 cm long and 2 cm broad. The flowers are 2-2.5 cm broad, with three small sepals and three white petals, and numerous purple stamens.
