Limnophila sessiliflora from Tropical Asia is an undemanding, very fast-growing plant, long known in the aquarium hobby. This fine-leaved light green stem plant is a good alternative to the more demanding Cabomba species.Stems grow fast up to 40 cm tall and become 3-4 cm wide. The plant often grows leggy in poor light, but this can be counteracted to some extent by stimulating growth with CO2 addition. Most beautiful when planted in groups. In good growing conditions it sends out runners and spreads across the bottom.
