A marsh plant with many highly redeeming qualities: large arrow shaped leaves, large attractive white and yellow flowers, attractive seed heads eaten by wildlife, edible tubers, takes up a lot of nutrients from the water. Need I say more? An all around top performer.

Other traits: Nutrient uptake, Wildlife, Herbal, Edible, Arrowhead works as a natural filter which helps to clarify water. Ducks, geese, muskrats and porcupines rely on Arrowhead tubers as a food source. Arrowhead was an important food for Native Americans who would dig them from the mud or find muskrat lodges and raid their collection. They are said to taste vaguely like chestnuts. Arrowhead has also been used as a root poultice for minor skin conditions.
