Cultural information: "Brooklime" is a small compact plant ideal for small ponds or container gardening. The foliage looks amazingly similar to an exotic house plant... the "Dinner Plate Aralia". 

Set plants in early spring directly in the pond utilizing baskets, at a maximum depth of 4". "Brooklime" will flower off and on from late spring thru the summer. Remove any dead or dying foliage and flowers as it appears.

Your local Garden Center may have "Brooklime" available... as well as several terrestrial forms of Veronica during the spring season.
