Description
Ludwigia polycarpa, the Many-fruited water-primrose, is pretty new to the aquarium hobby. This species originates from North America as well as the similar Ludwigia sphaerocarpa. It occurs from the eastern and central USA to southeastern Canada in floodplains, river and lake shores and swamps. Its terrestrial form looks rather inconspicuous, with narrow, green leaves and small, greenish flowers on long stems.
