Littorella uniflora is a unique and low-growing rosette plant with fine, grass-like leaves that add a natural, wild shoreline feel to aquascapes.

Its sturdy, upright blades make it ideal for detail-rich nature-style layouts. The Tropica 1-2-Grow! tissue culture form offers a completely clean, pest-free start for long-term healthy growth.
