It is commonly found in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. This plant is characterized by its rosette-like arrangement of light green leaves that float on the surface of freshwater bodies such as ponds, lakes, canals, and slow-moving rivers. 💧The leaves of water lettuce are thick and leathery, and they are covered in fine hairs that give them a velvety texture. The leaves are arranged in a circular pattern, forming a dense rosette up to 20 inches (50 centimeters) in diameter. The plant has a network of long, feathery roots that dangle beneath the water's surface. 💧Water lettuce is also cultivated as an ornamental plant in water gardens and aquariums. Its attractive appearance and easy propagation make it popular among aquatic plant enthusiasts. However, it is important to prevent the escape of water lettuce into natural water bodies to avoid potential negative impacts.
