Short Description

This is a very versatile plant that can be grown on pots like traditional plants or submersed in the aquarium. They can grow in the shade of other plants but this will reduce the growth rate dramatically. The lighting levels can affect the number of leaves per stem; in lower lighting levels on 2 leaves will appear on the stem, under brighter conditions the traditional 4 leaves will form.
