MARSILEA HIRSUTA
Marsilea hirsuta belongs to the family of water clovers and is native to Australia. Due to its small size it is also known as the dwarf four-leaf clover. In marshy conditions the plant forms small clover-shaped leaflets above water; under water it usually forms ovate leaflets, which strongly resemble the Glossostigma plant. The dwarf four-leaf clover, on the other hand, is much easier to grow and requires very little maintenance. The young plant takes some time to acclimatise to the aquarium, but gradually it forms an attractive carpet. Ideally, the emerged shoots should be completely cut off before planting; gradually new submerged shoots will form.
