About This Plant
Lilaeopsis mauritiana is the finest leaved of the Lilaeopsis species in commercial cultivation for aquarium use. It is a little less light demanding than other species, though the more light it gets, the shorter and thicker a lawn can be produced. This is a good option for those who want a grassy foreground, but something a little different from Eleocharis (hair grass) .
Care Requirements
Moderate, but does best with a nutrient rich substrate and good light
Family
Apiaceae
