Sometimes known as the Pineapple plant.
This plant removes free lime from the water. Especially good in hard water districts.
Rather like an Aloe or Agave with its saw tooth edged leaves. These leaves can be quite brittle and do sometimes break when handled, but they do re-grow.
Dragonflies and Damsel flies really like this plant.
- Winter hardy.
- Not harmful to fish despite its fearsome appearance.
- Start quite small in Spring growing up to large dinner plate, 18" (45 cm) diameter!
- Best suited to medium and large sized ponds.
- Has white flowers.
- Flowers in Summer.
- Will sink to the bottom of your pond during the Winter.
