Blyxa
Blyxa japonica
Family: Hydrocharitaceae
Blyxa Japonica is an elegant plant that produces rosettes of narrow, grass-like leaves with a slightly golden-green hue. It does not spread by runners but instead produces daughter plants around the mother. Under good light and CO2 it takes on olive-golden tones that complement red and green stem plants beautifully. A staple in Nature Aquarium style.
