Bacopa salzmannii (Purple Bacopa) is distributed from the south of Mexico to Paraguay, where it usually grows semi-emersed on the edges of ponds and the banks of slow-flowing rivulets. This species is quite variable, and today, several groups are counted among it that were originally described as species of their own. The plant brought into the hobby as Bacopa sp. 'Araguaia' is in reality a form of B. salzmannii, formerly classified as Bacopa lilacina (Pennell) Standl.
In the USA, this Bacopa species is already quite well-known, but still not as readily available in trade than from other hobbyists. In Europe, it is totally new, and only singular specimens are in cultivation at the moment.
This species is very much alike the well-known B. caroliniana, and it can be cultivated under the same conditions. It stays somewhat smaller than B. caroliniana, and the midrib of the leaves often has a distinclty reddish tint. Under lots of light, and given that the supply of micronutrients is ample, this reddish line may be less distinct, whereas the entire plant can be of a uniformly green hue under low light and provided with a lower level of micronutrients.
The emersed form of B. salzmannii has a thick, densely hirsute brown-coloured stem, and the flowers it develops grow on a distinctly longer stalk than those of B. caroliniana.
CO2 injection may be helpful but is not absolutely necessary for cultivating this plant in an aquarium.

Willing To Help!
100% satisfied with the service I received. I am new to the hobby and Leo took the time to answer any questions I had and even suggested a few products to help my plants thrive in their new home without harming any live stock.
Great Local Business
I have been in contact with the store since January in order to get the right selection of plants. Even with the pandemic and lack of supplies they were able to get my full selection which was pretty big. The quality of Tropica plants are impeccable. They answered all my questions and help me out with many tips regarding how to best plant my selection. If you wish to support a local business and get the best selection of plants 100% recommend using Aquascaperoom Canada.
Amazing Service
Great service. On time Toronto pick-up. Received a follow-up email from Leo the next day asking about my satisfaction with their products and service. That doesn't happen everyday and it was very much appreciated. I will buy from Aquascaperoom again soon.
Best Customer Service!
Such an amazing customer service. I ordered a few plants and some didnt look too good. I contacted them and they responded quickly. They took time to help me and walked me through what to do with the plants. They are very kind and understanding. I will be purchasing more from them in the future.
Only the best!
I’ve been using live plants in my aquariums for a little over two years. I get a lot of them from the aquascaperoom website. I have never had any problems, all the plants arrive very healthy and I bought their fertilizer tablets and liquid fertilizer and both are amazing for helping keep my plants healthy. They got so much variety on the website and the shipping is amazing. I can’t recommend them enough, you won’t be sorry you bought plants from this amazing business.

FAST SHIPPING!
My plant order came fast and was in excellent condition. They're all thriving and were obviously well cared for before shipping. Great service and I'll be ordering again.
Express Shipping with DOA!
The customer service here was absolutely above and beyond! I had 2 items arrive in not so good health but that probably happened during shipping and not because of the company, regardless I was refunded the 110% store credit for the items. Everything was well packed upon my next order and even came with a 72hr heat pack for the plants! I will do a lot more shopping here and will recommend it to anyone! Thank you Aquascaperoom!
