supasi Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 Did you remember what this plant is called Supasi? I like that ludwigia helminthorrhiza.... will have to try it some time Sorry, I completely forgot, will search for it tonight. The pic in my avitar is the flower of L. helminthorrhiza, its a cool plant. Great for fry to hide in. But likes good lighting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Hemianthus umbrosum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supasi Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Hemianthus umbrosum? Dont think it is Alan. I have H umbrosum also and the leaves are a different shape. I have my umbrosum floating also. I know the stuff Neon is asking about grows like a weed in the streams and swampy areas around here in Wanganui Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supasi Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 I know this is dredging up an old post, but I think this plant is Elatine gratioloides. Its an Aussie native Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Posted May 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 thanks Supasi! this stuff grows like crazy out in the pond. I might have to try growing it submersed.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
