Tiny flowers, each only about a millimeter long, are borne on stalks. Flowers which rise above the surface of the water open, while those that remain submersed stay closed and self-pollinate. The seeds come inside tiny inflated pods. There are two varieties of water awlwort; ''S. a.'' var. ''aquatica'' is native to Eurasia and ''S. a.'' var.
