Description
Vallisneria gigantea blooms all year and occurs almost always (estimated probability 99%) under natural conditions in wetlands. Long, flattened, ribbon-like leaves arising from a cluster at the base of the plant are minutely serrate with bluntly rounded tips. Leaves grow to 5 feet in length and approximately 0.4 inches in width. A light green stripe runs down the center of the finely-veined leaves.
Vallisneria gigantea grows in ponds, lakes and quiet streams at depths of 3-13 feet. Vallisneria gigantea likes quiet waters such as lakes and slow flowing streams, fresh to brackish waters of streams, lakes, rivers and bays from sea level to 1,640 feet. It is a native submerged plant that forms long ribbon like leaves growing up from the bottom of a pond or dam.
Description: Vallisneria gigantea is a genus of freshwater with long leaved grass-like aquatic plant. This plant will get rather large and will form a dense cover at the water surface which will aid in the control of free floating algae (green water).
