Cape Pond flower

Cape Pond-flower (Aponogeton) - A. distachyon is a beautiful and fragrant water-plant from the Cape of Good Hope, hardy in many parts of these islands. Near London, during severe winters, it is interesting to see the profuse bloom of this plant in spring, and in cold districts it is necessary, for its perfect culture in the open air, to grow it in spring or other water that does not freeze; in mild districts this is not needed. Failures often result from putting it in too shallow water. There is a rosy-tinted variety (roseus).
