Description
Sagittaria latifolia goes by a few popular names, among them are: Broadleaf Arrowhead, Duck Potato, Indian Potato and Wapato. The next to last is probably a result of how much Native Americans relied on the plant for food. The roots have edible tubors that are quite nutritious. They grow in the swamps and have tall spires with very interesting flowers.

Excellent focus work and the white blossoms are so pretty against the dark background! L/F

Thanks, Wes! Considering how the wind was blowing, I felt fortunate on the focus. :)
