Variegated Water Lettuce is a floating plant that is great for your pond or aquarium!
This variegated form is a rare type of the common water lettuce. It has a beautiful green leaf with white and yellow varying colors strewn throughout the leaf and feathery roots that hang down in the water. Water lettuce is one of the friendliest beginner plants that tends to thrive in any aquarium or outdoor pond. It requires adequate lighting and nutrients.
Typically, the fish waste created in the water will have enough nutrients for your water lettuce to thrive and spread across the top of the water.
