Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Neptunia (Neptune, god of the sea: some of the species are aquatic). Leguminosae. Perennial herbs, or subshrubs, often floating, one of which is an aquarium plant.

Unarmed, prostrate or diffuse, the branches usually flattened or triquetrous: lvs. bipinnate, sometimes sensitive, the lfts. small: fls. not papilionaceous, perfect or polygamous, in spikes or heads on axillary peduncles; calyx 5-lobed; petals 5, distinct or somewhat cohering; stamens 10 or 5, exserted: pod oblong, oblique, 2-valved, somewhat septate between the ovate compressed seeds.—Species perhaps a dozen, widely spread in the tropics; a few of them are in the extreme southern U. S. and are plants of moist or even dry soil.
