Limnophila sp. "Vietnam" is a beautiful, rare plant with a delicate appearance and a bright light green to yellowish color. Under enough light, it grows creeping and heavily branched and can even be cultivated as a groundcover. If you let it grow over the hardscape - say a stone - it grows overhanging. Under less strong light, Limnophila sp. Vietnam grows more upright and can also be used in the middle or background. It is a fairly easy to care for and uncomplicated plant, as long as it receives medium to strong light and an adequate supply of nutrients.
