Nesaea pedicellata 'Golden' is a striking stem plant with intense yellow to lime-green leaves that bring contrast and brightness to planted aquariums. This rare species is native to West Africa and is best used in midground or background groupings where its colour can stand out against darker greens or reds.
It thrives in high-light setups with nutrient-rich substrate and benefits from CO₂ injection for more compact and vivid growth. Due to its unique colouration and slightly more demanding care, it's especially appreciated in aquascapes looking for rare focal points.

Nesaea 'Golden' prefers soft to moderately hard water. To maintain its golden tones, avoid shading it with taller plants. Frequent trimming encourages bushier growth and prevents legginess in low-light zones.
