Best Answer

They serve two purposes. Firstly for stabilization, as otherwise the plant could easily be damaged by floating into debris in the water. Second the plant needs a means of absorbing water. Most plants do this through their roots. Even though the "pad" rests on the surface of the water. It can't absorb that water.
