Cabomba caroliniana, commonly known as Green cabomba or carolina fanwort is an aquatic perennial herbaceous plant native to North and South America. It is also known by other names such as Washington grass, Washington plant, common cabomba, Washington plant, and watershield.
Green cabomba is a submerged, sometimes floating, but often rooted, freshwater perennial plant with short, fragile rhizomes. The erect shoots are upturned extensions of the horizontal rhizomes. The shoots are grass-green to olive-green. The leaf blade attaches to the centre, where a slight constriction is seen. The flowers are white and small (less than 1⁄2 in (13 mm) in diameter) and are on stalks that arise from the tips of the stems.
