Ranunculus limosella is a small and
beautiful plant well suited for foreground decoration or for tanks designed
after the Nature Aquarium concept. It is an amphibious plant which
growth equally well above or below water though the growth is probably
enhanced by CO enrichment when grown
submerged. In the land form R. limosella flowers with a 5 mm
unpretentious yellow-purple flower. R. limosella is easily confused
with various species in the genus of Lilaeopsis
though R. limosella has a distinct petiole and blade compared to the
more undifferentiated leaf of Lilaeopsis. See also, the article Ranunculus
limosella - a new aquarium plant from New Zealand which provides more
thorough information.
Tip! The pot contains contains 100 plants or more. Therefore, split
up the lump into 8 or more pieces and plant with a distance of about 5 cm in
a mesh structure to obtain a faster plant cover. See also A
great start of a beautiful aquarium.
