Aninga
Aninga is a robust, aquatic perennial herb with broad, arrowhead-shaped leaves and a thick, erect stem. Thriving in swampy habitats, it exhibits a distinct preference for wet soils. Its peculiar inflorescence is cylindrical, resembling a cat's tail, which pokes above the water, aiding in its pollination. The plant's growth pattern often forms dense thickets, providing shelter and habitat for various aquatic wildlife.
