Bog Plants - Genus sagittaria

Sagittaria montevidensis ~~ One of the more intriguing members of the genus. Large, stiff, sagitate leaves are produced at the end of thick stems. Plants can grow up to 3 feet tall, but are usually 1.5 feet tall. The flowers are the best part. They are like large versions of the typical Sagittaria flower with a large dark red spot at the bottom of each petal. Plants form clusters which may be divided during the growing season. Unless protected form winter cold and complete dormancy, this is an annual sp. and must reseed to come back. Not to worry, though, each plant will produce thousands of seeds during the summer, many of which will germinate in shallow water. Plants may be lifted and moved into a greenhouse for more assured survival. ZONE 8 Flowers July, August, September ***** Restrictions: Sorry, but we can't ship this item to Puerto Rico. *****

Sagittaria graminea ~~ Submersed growth is limited to broad, strap-like leaves, and includes the use of runners to reproduce. This species is eager to come out of the water in the summertime. Emersed leaves are approx. 1.5 by 3.5 inches and are broadly lanceolate. Stems are up to 1 foot long. The flowers are 1/2 inch in diameter and are carried above the leaves. As they fill with seeds, they sometimes bend over under their own weight. A very suitable plant for small water gardens and for the margins of larger ones. They do not crowd their pots too badly and so will give a good show all season. *** Restrictions: Sorry, but we can't ship this item to Puerto Rico, Washington. ***

Lance shaped leaved 4 to 6 inches long are held on stems 2 to 6 feet tall. Large, white flowers are held on stems 5 to 6 feet high. The plants form clumps which can become quite large. Dividing these clumps every couple of years is the most reliable way to propogate them.

Sagittaria lancifolia "Red Stem" ~~ Same as S. lancifolia but with a distinctly red coloration at the base of, and going up about one third the length of, the leaf stem.

Sagittaria sp. ~~ Very similar to S. lancifolia except that the leaves are narrower and are more sharply bent along the mid-rib. The leaf stems are green overall but they have attractive red variegations running in parrallel, horizontal rows parallel to the ground. The flowers are smaller than S. lancifolia, but are more numerous.

Most useful as a submersed grass in aquariums and as an oxygenator in ponds. Ribbon shaped leaves grow up to 12 inches long and 3/8 of an inch wide. Plant reproduces by runners and can form dense colonies which become dense enough to stabilize soil in ponds. In shallow water small, dark green, ovate leaves with small brown speckles are produces. Small, white flowers float on the water's surface or are held slightly above it.
