Tropica In Vitro 1-2-grow! Marsilea Hirsuta
Aquarium plant from tissue culture in closed cup.
Marsilea hirsuta is a carpet-plant from Australia. A fascinating plant, usually delivered with leaves like a four-leaf clover. After a transitional period it develops different types of leaves, possibly a low form with single leaves like a large Glossostigma, or alternatively develop two, three or four-lobed leaves varying in height (from 2-10 cm), depending on the growth conditions. Whichever form the plant adopts, it forms runners and spreads rapidly round the aquarium.
Marsilea Hirsuta is considered easy to maintain. It is suitable for nano aquariums. In Vitro plants are grown in a sterile environment free from algae, snails and pests.
