Water Soldier - Aquatic Plant, Hermaphrodite, Hydrocharitaceae

Stratiotes is a genus of submerged aquatic plant commonly known as water soldiers. A characteristic of the genus is the habit of the plants rising to the surface at flowering time.The leaves are serrate and very brittle, breaking easily when handled. Reproduction is generally by offsets, which may number 5 or more per plant. In the UK, male plants have rarely if ever been recorded, although some hermaphrodite flowers have been recorded from more southerly locations. Sexual reproduction is not known to occur.
