from: £4.95 · scroll down to shop

Limnophila sessiliflora is a fast growing plant with beautiful light-green filamentous leaves which very much resembles the popular Cabomba species. In contrast to Cabomba, Limnophila sessiliflora does not require much light to grow and thus it can replace Cabomba in situations where this light demanding plant does not thrive well. Limnophila sessiliflora can take up a lot of inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus because it is fast growing, and the shoot apex which often needs to be cut can easily be replanted in the substrate. It develops adventitious shoots when the top is cut and becomes more bushy, though some of the new shoots tend to creep along the bottom. Limnophila means 'swamp friend' and in Nature Limnophila sessiliflora grows in shallow water of lakes and along stream and river banks.
