Also known as "Mermaid Weed," Proserpinaca palustris is a unique stem plant that stands out with its saw-toothed, serrated leaves. Grown in sterile 1-2-Grow! cups, this version is pest- and algae-free, ideal for aquascapers looking for a clean and ready-to-plant specimen.
When submerged and grown under strong lighting with good CO₂, the plant’s leaves transition from green to orange-copper, adding bold colour contrast to the midground. It’s a favourite among hobbyists looking to add structure and texture to high-tech layouts.

Proserpinaca palustris may take time to adjust to submerged growth. During conversion, the leaf shape and colour will evolve dramatically. It’s best planted in stable, nutrient-rich tanks to bring out its full colour potential.
