What Naiad Looks Like:

Thread-like leaves are 1 ¼ in to 4 in long, and 1/32 in to 1/16 in wide, and taper to a point. The basal sheath of leaves sometimes has a pointed tip or bayonet that aids in identification when plants are not in flower. Stems are slender, and abundantly branched so that bushy leaf clusters fan out at the water surface. Roots have slender rhizomes, and are long and straight.

How to Treat Naiad:
