Potamogeton natans, commonly known as floating pondweed, is a perennial aquatic plant native to temperate regions. It is found in still or slow-moving freshwater bodies such as ponds, lakes, and slow streams. The plant has floating leaves and submerged leaves, with the floating leaves being more prominent. It undergoes a dormancy period during the colder months.
Floating pondweed thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers medium light conditions. It requires high humidity and should be kept in waterlogged conditions. Ensure the plant is in a temperate climate for optimal growth.
