This plant is made up of small hairy green leaves floating on the surface. Salvinia are not hardy and can be burnt by cold winds. It makes a very attractive plant in shallow bowls with a little soil and kept in a warm, light position.

Not hardy. Remove decaying plants after first frost. Very hard to overwinter.
