Water fern

Water fern is an aquatic plant often found submerged in freshwater environments or growing along the edges of ponds and lakes. It has delicate, feathery fronds that resemble fern leaves, but it is actually an aquatic fern. Water fern reproduces mainly through spores and can spread rapidly, sometimes becoming invasive in non-native areas. It helps improve water quality by absorbing nutrients and providing habitat for aquatic life. Its ability to grow in various water conditions makes it useful for water gardens and conservation projects, but it requires proper management to prevent overgrowth.
