Description

Bacopa lanigera, sometimes just called woolly bacopa, is a fine-textured stem plant with soft, feathery green leaves that sway in the flow. Its light, airy foliage sits well through the middle and back of the tank, giving a scape movement and a sense of depth.

It grows upright as a stem and takes well to trimming, so you can top it and replant the cuttings to build a fuller stand over time. It gives its best, most compact growth with strong light and CO2, and a nutrient-rich substrate keeps the new leaves healthy and green. Group several stems together for the fullest effect.
