Staurogyne repens
On sale
This slow-growing Brazilian plant, Staurogyne repens, hails from the acanthus family. Bearing resemblance to hybrid Hygrophila, this foreground species is highly suitable for aquascape designs paired with Hemianthus callitrichoides. High light and nutrient levels are essential to its growth - regular trimming of shoots encourages horizontal branching of new shoots for a dense, attractive effect.
