Description
The Red Watermilfoil combines red coloration with fine feather-like leaves. It was erroneously called Myriophyllum mattogrossense for a long time and even today it is often sold with the label M. mattogrossense 'Red'. It differs much from the true, green M. mattogrossense from South America.
