Requesting ID of this plant with white flowers - Mumbai :28062013 : ARK-01 : Attachments (9). 5 posts by 4 authors.

Requesting to please ID this plant with white flowers captured in a cultivated garden in Mumbai in June 2013. The plant was a water plant.

Alisma species, more possibly A. plantago-aquatica.

To me the white flowers look like Echinodarus palaefolius, Mexican Sword Plant.

The aquatic plant with long leaves is something else.

efi page on Alisma plantago-aquatica & Echinodorus palaefolius

Does not look like Alisma plantago-aquatica
