Floating HeartNymphoides peltata

Yellow Floating-Heart requires consistently moist soil and waterlogged conditions, mimicking its natural aquatic habitat.

Ensure pots are submerged in a pond or large container, keeping the water level stable to prevent the roots from drying out. Avoid letting the substrate become completely dry at any point.

Pruning for Yellow Floating-Heart is primarily about managing its spread and removing dead or yellowing foliage. Trim away any overgrown stems or leaves that are submerged and decaying.

This helps maintain plant health and prevents overcrowding, ensuring good water circulation.

Propagation is easily achieved through division of established plants or by collecting seeds. Mature plants will naturally produce runners or offsets that can be separated and replanted.

Seeds can be collected from the developing fruits after flowering and sown in moist substrate.

Repotting is typically done in spring before new growth actively begins. Yellow Floating-Heart thrives in rich, heavy soil. Use a well-draining aquatic plant pot filled with a mix of loam and sand.

Ensure the pot is sturdy and will not readily decompose in water.
