Description

Hygrophila polysperma is one the easiest plants to grow, suited for beginners and new set ups as it just keeps growing whilst absorbing excess nutrients. Originating from India, the polysperma grow very fast and often need trimming. Under good lighting the shoot will turn a reddish-brown.

When planting this plant in the substrate try using 2 or 3 rocks to surround the stem, this will highlight the plant and help bring out the colour.

Arrived in quickly and in excellent condition. Was extremely well packaged. Excellent growth since going in the tank. Would definitely buy from Aqua Essentials in the future and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others.

Loves to grow. Great coverage for fish. They like swimming through it.

This is a lovely plant, now growing rapidly with the root tabs that I bought with it. It needs trimming as it gets rather lanky!

Do you stock the green and pink tiger stipe variation of Hygrophila polysperma potted? I would post an image link but it won't allow me to paste on my iPad, The closes image on Google search is the 16th and 33rd image in the image search results, The plant has lower green leaves and reddish pink top leaves.
