Here are some photos to show how different rotala looks between its emersed state and submerged...

Here it is growing amongst some Java moss on top of a rimu log

This bit had been growing up out of the water as the water level had dropped considerably. I have just done a water change and topped up the tank.

It looks gorgeous as a pond plant!

That moss goes super cute when emersed!

Thought I would add a full shot of the tank before once again hauling out excess rotala. It grows like a weed! :roll:

And its the emersed growth shape that gives this plant its name.

Rotala rotundifolia :sage:

Which is latin for round leaves that rotate around the stem.

funny how the plants grow , never ad luck with it , but all other plants grown well !!!

hot dang caryl, that's a beautiful tank.
