Hygrophilia (Hygrophila corymbosa v. "Siamensis Narrow Leaf")(Giant Hygro: narrow leaf)

Hardy...just came in. These are very nice specimens. Long narrow leaves. Leaves are mostly vertical.  Under water the leaves are light-green and dense. In open aquariums Hygrophila corymbosa 'Siamensis' grows easily above the water surface, where it forms blue-green leaves and small blue flowers. It grows fast and the shoots must be pinched out regularly if you want to keep the plant under water. An extremely hardy plant, suitable for beginners.
