LA
Lemon bacopa, Bacopa caroliniana, has a bit of a minty smell (like a few
others). Actually, it smells a lot like Mela-Fix which has tea tree
oil in it. Fresh out of the bag. Not really adapted to growing
in a tank yet.
LA
Regular bacopa starts out green and roots very fast.
LA
Red ludwigia, Ludwigia, repens. Most of the leaves fell off by the
second day. Nice contrast plant -- if it stayed together.
LA
Giant hygro, Hygrophila corymbosa, often called temple plant. Grows
fast in a strong light. Several strains can be found. See hygrophila
family for other forms of hygrophila.
LA
Take the lead off and plant each stem separately three inches apart.
LA
These were grown in the emersed form and will look different over time.
LA
Water wisteria, Hygrophila difformis, another member of the hygrophila
family.
LA
This is the emersed form, grown out of the water. Compare these
leaves to the submerged form in hygrophila
family.
LA
As time passes, the bunches open up and grow wider.
LA
Green hygro, Hygrophila polysperma, fresh out of the wet rolled-up
newspaper.
LA
Cabomba, Cabomba caroliniana, probably one of the best baby savers.
Pretty, too.
LA
Two bunches of cabomba can fill a 10-gallon tank.
LA
Cabomba looks extremely good from the top.
LA
In sunshine, cabomba flowers above will go to seed and reproduce.
LA
Even the bunched cabomba spreads out if given extra room.
LA
Ghost shrimp also like cabomba.
