Eriocaulon cinereum
The Eriocaulon genus is incredibly sizable, with an estimated 400-800 species. Eriocaulon cinereum is a unique specimen for the avid plant lover. Optimal lighting, soft water, and high CO2 levels are essential for successful cultivation. The mini, hedgehog-shaped nature of the plant renders it ideal for the foreground of any tank, further enhanced when planted in conjunction with carpet plants such as Hemianthus callitrichoides 'Cuba' or Micranthemum tweediei 'Montecarlo'. This small size has made Eriocaulon a popular choice for aquascaping, functioning as a subtle ornamental accent.
