Verbatim Directions to Locality: South of [highway] 20 at intersection of [highway] S-260.
Habitat: South of [highway] 20 at intersection of [highway] S-260.
Plant Morphology Observations: I see no achenes despite the fact the the lvs are very narrow. Fruit set is slight because the anthers of this plant lack pollen. The flowers were a faint pink and there are no plate-like glands on the perianth segments although they are numerous on the leaves.
Notes: Charles B. McDonald - I would be inclined to place this plant with P. hydropiperoides var. hydropiperoides despite the narrow leaves.
Brian James Poirier - Plant morphology is from additional tag on specimen authored by Charles Mcdonald.
