Alismataceae

2 plants in database

Alismataceae in this database spans zones 4-11 with 2 species, so design it as a guild component instead of a monoculture block. Use its strongest role (Edible) intentionally and manage spacing for airflow because there are 2 recurring pests in this family. Anchor it in the Herbaceous layer and pair with unrelated support species in other layers; if you save seed from multiple cultivars, isolate flowering plants to reduce accidental crosses within the family.
