Yellow Buckbean

Yellow Buckbean (Villarsia) - V. nymphaeoides is a pretty British water plant, with leaves like a Water Lily, but smaller, and floating. Its yellow flowers are borne singly, and last through the summer. Division.

The following two kinds I have at Gravetye, but am not sure if they are as hardy as the common wild kind:—

Villarsia Reniformis - A graceful water plant, a welcome addition for fountain basins and pools without rush of water. It may even be useful in open water, like our native Villarsia.

Villarsia Ovata - Quite distinct from V. reniformis, has the same beautifully-fringed flowers, and is most welcome for fountain basins.
