This plant is prone to producing tiny purple and blue flowers. Propagation can be made by removing clippings near the top. It has long, slender leaves which radiate from the roots. Although it rarely exceeds five inches, it is bushy enough to give detail to any part of the tank. The leaves are greenish-yellow and are pointed.
Propagation is necessary to keep the plant growing.
However, this can be done easily by dividing the root system. It is hardy, but does not tolerate variations in pH or strong lighting. It has wrinkled, circular greenish-yellow leaves. The root system looks remarkably close to that of a bunch of bananas. The plant does best with its root system sitting on, or partially submerged in the substrate.
