Nasturtium microphyllum
Also called Narrow Fruited Water Cress, One Row Watercress, Narrow Fruit Watercress, Northern Watercress, One Row Yellowcress, Small Leaved Watercress, Narrow Fruited Watercress
Onerow yellowcress is a small aquatic or semi-aquatic perennial in the cabbage family, closely related to watercress and grown in wet ground or shallow water. The key to growing it is consistently wet or submerged roots and cool, bright conditions.
Nasturtium microphyllum, the onerow yellowcress, is an aquatic plant species widespread across Europe and Asia, and naturalized in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Central America, Australia, New Zealand and other places. It occurs in wet locations generally at elevations less than 1500 m. It has been reported from every Canadian province except Nova Scotia and Saskatchewan. In the US, it is fairly common in New England, New York, and Michigan, with scattered populations in the southern and western parts of the country.
