Description


Baldellia ranunculoides is an aquatic plant which produced erect flowering stems that rise up to 10 centimetres (4 in) above the water surface.[3] Each flower stalk bears one or two umbels of up to five flowers each, and often only a single flower. Each flower is 10–15 millimetres (0.4–0.6 in) in diameter, and has three petals.[3] When not in flower, B. ranunculoides can be mistaken for lesser spearwort, Ranunculus flammula, which grows in similar locations.[3]

May have been introduced by a float (Sarracenia magazine, Newfoundland and Labrador Wildflower Society.
