Frogbit

Scientific Name: Limnobium spongia
Frogbit can be floating or rooted. It is only a few inches around, and the green heart shaped leaves resemble a miniature water lily that floats on the water's surface. The blossoms are 1/4inch, and are pale cream. Frogbit grows very easy and is great for surface coverage and algae elimination.

It is also used in aquariums, although it tends to stay much smaller. In aquarium use, care must be taken that it is not constantly dripped on by condensation from the aquarium lid. For this reason it often does better in open topped tanks.
Use: Floating, on ponds, tubs or aquariums
