Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Orontium aquaticum, Linn. Golden Club. Lvs. ascending or floating, according to the depth of the water, oblong- elliptic, no distinct midrib, but numerous parallel veins; blade 5-12 x 2-5 in.; stalk 4-20 in. long: scape ½-2 ft. long. B.B. 1:364. L.B.C. 5:402. R.H. 1888:85. Gn. 27, p. 213. G.M. 54:247.—The foliage is handsome, dark velvety green above, silvery below. The plant is very strong and deeply rooted, growing in water 10-18 in. deep. On account of its firm hold on the soil it may be planted in swifter water than most aquatics. It has the fault of being difficult to eradicate when firmly established.
