Hygrophila Polysperma ‘Rosanervig’ “Hygrophila Sunset”
Hygrophila Polysperma ‘Rosanervig’ or known as “Hygrophila Sunset” can develop a tendency for horizontal growth and creep along the substrate. This is often caused by higher light levels and a plant’s natural tendency to ‘take over’ as much space as it can before it changes to producing more vertical growth. Ways to avoid this are to crowd the plant or to increase phosphate (PO4) levels. Propagating and pruning this plant is very simple. Simply top and replant. This species produces many side shoots when pruned like a hedge, creating an attractive, manicured bush.
