Eleocharis dulcis
Eleocharis dulcis, the Chinese water chestnut or water chestnut, is a grass-like sedge native to Asia, tropical Africa, and Oceania. It is grown in many countries for its edible corms, but if eaten uncooked, the surface of the plants may transmit fasciolopsiasis. The water caltrop, which also is referred to by the same name, is unrelated and often confused with the water chestnut.
