It is more like a zillion tiny clover leafs on the water surface. It blooms occasionally on the Cane River (distressing the Tourist Commission.) Once I was sailing Lake Pontchartrain from New Orleans to the Gulf Coast, and encountered a large bloom of it just as I was becalmed. I had an opportunity to dip some out.
