Tropica Micranthemum glomeratum Potted Plant

Micranthemum glomeratum from North America is a graceful plant whose small, arched leaves make it look like a miniature version of Egeria. It has a characteristic trailing growth in intensive light, so it can be used as a foreground plant (stems from 10-20 cm tall, 2-3 cm wide).

A compact group of Micranthemum glomeratum is very beautiful with its small, light-green leaves. In terrariums the plant forms a compact cushion.

Used to be called Hemianthus micranthemoide.
