About This Plant

Ammannia pedicellata is another of the plants that has moved from the genus Nesaea to Ammannia. This species is easier to cultivate than A. crassicaulis, being less demanding. it still needs moderate to high light, supplemental CO2 and a good, nutritious substrate. Like other plants in the genus, it does much better if it is not crowded. Crowding tends to make it lose the lower leaves.
