I went by one of my LPS tonight to see what they had in the way of plants and they had this thing called water rose that looked pretty neat but the lady there said it was actually a terrestrial plant but that it still grew pretty good under water and that the ones they had they had had for awhile and were still doin fine. she also said it could be called water lettuce which i did some research on and is a floating plant and the plant they had was planted in the gravel

so i was wondering if anybody had ever heard of water rose and knew any info about it

If they are this http://aqualandpetsplus.com/Pond,%20Water%20Lettuce.htm ,best to let them float.
