Marsilea hirsuta 1-2-Grow!

Marsilea hirsuta is a ground cover from Australia. An unusual appearance in the aquarium. That's a shame, because it is a very beautiful plant that can certainly add a natural, decorative value to a layout in a Nature Aquarium. This aquarium plant spreads with suckers. Some shoots produce a leaf that closely resembles that of a four-leaf clover. Under the right conditions, a patch of round, dark green leaves can form. In other cases a 2,3 or 4-lobed leaf forms on a petiole of 2 to 10 cm.

Divide the plant into small portions before planting. The plant develops shoots and walks through the aquarium and can cover large distances in a short time and grow again somewhere in another place. This makes this aquarium plant certainly not the easiest, but one of those special species that can give a layout a unique look.

is an ideal ground cover for an aquarium with less light. The small fern-like plant comes from Asia, where it is common in rice fields. The leaves are very small and rarely become wider than 0.5 cm. It is a robust plant that can thrive in low light and high temperatures. But the plant will respond positively to improved conditions.

Plant small portions a few inches apart. Over time, shoots will develop and the plant will spread throughout the aquarium. The result is a beautiful carpet, which looks very similar to a Glossostigma carpet. The color is slightly darker and the leaves are slightly larger. The height varies from 1 to 3 cm and the roots grow well into the substrate.


Marsilea hirsuta has a unique appearance, but with its dark green color it is a plant species that gives the aquarium a very natural character!
