Marsilea sp. – In-Vitro Cup
Marsilea sp. is a versatile and attractive aquatic plant, often referred to as an “aquatic clover” due to its distinctive, clover-like leaves. Grown under sterile, in-vitro conditions, this plant is free from pests, algae, and other contaminants, ensuring a clean and healthy addition to freshwater aquariums.
Marsilea sp. is commonly used as a foreground or carpeting plant in aquascaping, spreading slowly to form a lush green mat across the substrate.
