Ipomoea aquatica
''Ipomoea aquatica'' is a semiaquatic, tropical plant grown as a vegetable for its tender shoots and leaves. It is found throughout the tropical and subtropical regions of the world, although it is not known where it originated. This plant is known in English as water spinach, river spinach, water morning glory, water convolvulus, or by the more ambiguous names Chinese spinach, Chinese Watercress, Chinese convolvulus, swamp cabbage or ''kangkong'' in Southeast Asia. Occasionally, it has also been mistakenly called "kale" in English, although kale is a strain of mustard belonging to the species ''Brassica oleracea'' and is completely unrelated to water spinach, which is a species of morning glory. It is known as ''phak bung'' in Thai and Laotian, ''ong choy'' in Cantonese, ''kongxincai'' in Mandarin Chinese, ''rau muống'' in Vietnamese, ''kangkong'' in Tagalog, ''ကန်စွန်း, gazun'' in Myanmar, ''trokuon'' in Khmer, ''kolmou xak'' in Assamese, ''kalmi saag'' in Hindi, ''kalmi shak'' in Bengali, ''Thooti Koora'' in Telugu, ''kangkung'' in Indonesian, Malay and Sinhalese and ''hayoyo'' in Ghana. In Suriname (South-America) it's known as ''dagoeblad'' or ''dagublad''.
==Description==
''I. aquatica'' grows in water or on moist soil. Its stems are or more long, rooting at the nodes, and they are hollow and can float. The leaves vary from typically sagittate (arrow head-shaped) to lanceolate, long and broad. The flowers are trumpet-shaped, in diameter, and usually white in colour with a mauve centre. Propagation is either by planting cuttings of the stem shoots that will root along nodes or planting the seeds from flowers that produce seed pods.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Growing kangkong in water )〕
