Description

Hygrophila Angustifolia, commonly known as Willow Hygro or Blue Hygrophila, is a stunning aquatic plant prized for its slender, willow-like leaves and vibrant green hue.

Usage Tips:

  • Positioning: Plant in the background of your aquarium for height and visual depth.
  • Maintenance: Prune regularly to encourage denser growth and prevent over-shading.
  • Lighting: Performs well in low to moderate light but responds with faster growth in higher light settings.
