| Ludwigia palustris | |
Ludwigia palustris is a species of flowering plant in the evening primrose family known by the common names marsh seedbox,[1] Hampshire-purslane[2] and water purslane. This is an aquatic or semiaquatic perennial herb which grows in moist to wet to flooded areas. It is sometimes a weed. The species epithet palustris is Latin for "of the marsh" and indicates its common habitat.[3]
Conservation and Threats
[edit]The plant can be highly invasive outside its native range, very adaptable, and reproduces asexually.[4] Ludwigia palustris poses a potential threat to wetland vegetation in Victoria, Australia. It has spread to riverbanks in Northeastern Australia and other areas.[5]
