Water-violet

A vigorous water plant, either rooting in the mud a few centimetres below water level, or floating in the water. Plants overwinter by means of winter resting buds which sink to the bottom of the pond until the following spring. Plants are useful oxygenators of the water. The flowers have a delicate mossy scent rather like the primrose or the fading perfume of the violet.
