Water Lettuce is a floating aquatic plant with soft, velvety leaves that form a rosette shape resembling a small head of lettuce. Known for its vibrant green color and feathery root system, water lettuce is a popular addition to ponds, aquariums, and water gardens where it provides shade, reduces algae growth, and offers shelter for fish. It helps improve water quality by absorbing excess nutrients and toxins.

Water lettuce grows quickly and spreads across the water surface, so regular thinning may be necessary to prevent overcrowding.
