    Limnocharis flava commonly known as yellow velvetleaf, sawah flower rush or sawah lettuce is a species of aquatic flowering plant belonging to Limnocharitaceae (Water-poppy family). The plant is native to Mexico, the Caribbean (i.e. Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Grenada and Haiti), Central America (i.e. Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Panama) and tropical South America (Venezuela, Brazil, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, northern Argentina and Paraguay). It is widely naturalized in southern and southeastern Asia: India, Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Burma, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei and southern China (Guangdong, Yunnan). Few of the popular common names of the plants are yellow sawah lettuce, yellow burr head, yellow velvetleaf, Sawah Lettuce, Sawah Flowering Rush, Bak kanjong, Bengok, Berek, Bon cheen, Etjeng, Genjur, Jinjir, Keo neo, Ne thao, Phak kanjong, Phak pai, Sawah-flower rush, Talapat Rusee, Trakiet paong, bur head, limnocharis, Hermit’s Waterlily and Limnocharis.

    The genus name Limnocharis comes from the Greek words limne meaning “marsh” and charis meaning “beauty”, in reference to the natural habitat of the plant and beauty of the flowers. The specific epithet flava means “bright almost pure yellow “, in reference to the color of the blooms of the plant. It is a popular and highly respected vegetable in the tropics, particularly in parts of SE Asia; the plant is both gathered from the wild and also occasionally cultivated in rice paddies. It can often be found for sale in local markets. The plant is valued as an ornamental in some countries and is cultivated in botanic gardens or private homes. Generally it grows wherever there is not very deep stagnant fresh water, in swampy areas. It sometimes invades rice fields where it can become a weed. As an invasive species it has become a pest in some wetlands in other parts of the world. It is a known vegetable in some countries. The leaves and young flowering stalks can be cooked and used in soups and mixed vegetable dishes. The plant is also used for green manure.

    Plant Description

    Sawah Lettuce is an erect, flowering, clump-forming, perennial herbaceous plant that grows in both aquatic and swampy terrestrial environments. The plant roughly grows about 20-120 cm tall from a short thick rhizome. Its triangular-shaped leaves and hollow stems are hairless. The plant is found growing in shallow swamps, ditches, pools and wet rice fields, occurring usually in stagnant freshwater bodies of water (i.e. dams, lakes and ponds), slow moving waterways, wetlands, marshes, irrigation channels, drainage ditches and ponded crops (e.g. rice). In ephemeral bodies of water that experience a dry season, this plant will grow as an annual. This plant is highly aggressive and will quickly establish in any shallow freshwater.

    Stems

    The very large and somewhat fleshy leaves arise from the base of the plant, and are borne in clusters along a short thick upright (i.e. erect) stem about 3cm long and 3 cm wide.

    Leaves

    The leaves are yellow-green, smooth and hairless (i.e. glabrous) and consists of a milky sap (i.e. latex). They are borne on long three-angled stalks (i.e. trigonous petioles) 5-90 cm long and have rounded (i.e. orbicular) leaf blades. The leaf blades are orbicular (approximately circular in outline), broadly elliptic or ovate in shape, with 9-13 main nerves and numerous secondary nerves running in parallel. They are 5-30 cm long and 4-25 cm wide and have blunt tips (i.e. obtuse apices) and entire or wavy (i.e. undulate) margins.

    Flowers

    The flowers are borne in loose clusters (containing 2-15 flowers) at the top of long stalks (20-120 cm long). These upright flower stalks (i.e. erect peduncles) emerge from the base of the plant and are three-angled (i.e. trigonous), like the leaf stalks (i.e. petioles). About one to four of these flowering stalks are produced amongst each cluster of leaves. The individual flowers are 2-4 cm across and are borne on short thick stalks (i.e. pedicels), 2-7 cm long, that emerge from the same point at the top of the flowering stems (i.e. they are arranged in an umbel). There are usually some small papery bracts present amongst the flower stalks (i.e. pedicels). Each flower has three large pale yellow petals (2-3 cm long and 1-2 cm wide); three overlapping green sepals are 15-20 mm long and 10-15 mm wide, and a cluster of numerous bright yellow stamens at its center. Flowering occurs throughout the year, depending on conditions (i.e. it usually flowers during wetter periods).

    Fruit

    The upright flower stalks (i.e. peduncles) begin to droop as the fruit mature, and the persistent sepals become enlarged and enclose the developing fruit. The fruit are rounded capsules’ (i.e. spherical follicles), 15-20 mm across, that split up into several (10-20) floating segments when mature. Each segment is semi-circular in shape and contains numerous ridged seeds that are 1-1.5 mm long that are dark brown in color and horseshoe-shaped. Mature seed capsule consists of around 1000 seeds and will split into multiple floating segments, aiding in dispersal. Although it is not a floating plant, its seeds are carried away by currents.
