Description
Water Chesnut Trapa Natans
Leaf cover shades the surface which helps prevent the growth of algae. Trapas reproduce by forming nuts which sink to the bottom in the autumn. These nuts are called Water Chestnuts and used in Chinese dishes.
We suggest 2-3 large floating plants per 1m²
Allow to die back naturally. In warm summers they will produce nuts that will survive at the bottom of the pond to produce new plants the following season
