Hygrophila pinnatifida originates from India. It obtains brown, patched leaves on the surface with a distinctive burgundy color underneath. It forms multiple horizontal shoots if the top shoots are pinched. This will maintain compact and attractive growth. The horizontal side shoots easily attach to both wood and rocks. Growth is moderate, stems 15-40 cm tall, and 10-20 cm wide, and the color is attractive when planted in small groups with a plain background. Intense lighting ensures compact growth due to the plant’s slow to the medium growth rate.
