    From June to August, bright yellow, buttercup-like flowers on stiff stems above leathery, deep green, floating leaves similar to those of a water lily. The flowers of this vigorous, deep water aquatic plant smell strongly of alcohol - hence its intriguing common name. It copes well in sun or partial shade, but needs space to spread out, making it ideal for a large pond or lake.

  • Garden care: Divide large clumps in late spring or summer using aquatic baskets and aquatic compost.
