Alisma (derivation doubtful). Alismaceae. A genus of 2 species of hardy aquatics, with small white or pale rose fls. on scapes with whorled, panicled branches. Perennial by a stout proliferous corm. Useful in ponds. Prop. by division or seeds. According to N. Amer. Flora 17:43, 1905, the native water-plantain is not the same as the Old World species, to which, exclusively, should be applied the name here taken up for the species which has hitherto been considered cosmopolitan, and is now so treated.

'''''Alisma''''' is a genus of plants in the [[Alismataceae]] or water-plantain family.  The genus consists of [[aquatic]] plants with [[leaves]] either floating or submerged, found in a variety of still water habitats. The [[flowers]] are [[hermaphrodite]], and are arranged in [[Inflorescence|panicles]], racemes, or umbels.  ''Alisma'' flowers have six [[stamens]], numerous free [[carpels]] in a single whorl, each with 1 ovule, and subventral styles. The fruit is an [[achene]] with a short beak.

The nineteenth century [[Briton|British]] art and social critic [[John Ruskin]] believed that the particular curve of the leaf-ribs of ''Alisma'' represented a model of 'divine proportion' and helped shape his theory of [[Gothic architecture]].
