from: £4.95 · scroll down to shop

Lilaeopsis sp. Mauritius was found by Holger Windeløv in 1992 at Mauritius east of Africa. It was growing submerged with very short leaves. The leaves grow from a horizontal rhizome and new leaves are set for every 2-5 cm. It forms a very nice 'lawn' if it is planted in a pots or otherwise restricted in horizontal growth for example by surrounding rocks. Otherwise it tends to run along the glass and it takes much longer before a homogene cover is obtained. Lilaeopsis sp. Mauritius requires less light then Lilaeopsis brasiliensis . It also grows bigger and the leaf transection is circular compared to the more flat Lilaeopsis brasiliensis leaves. It is a tolerant plant and thrives in hard as well as soft water. Lilaeopsis sp. Mauritius is also suitable as a pond plant.
