Limnophila aquatica "Giant Ambulia"

I got these stems of giant ambulia from my favorite fishstore. I have received stems of this plant previously. Those are in the other tank and have made new tops.
These don’t have a proper root system yet, but I’m in good faith that they will make new tops too.

I’m very glad to have received these stems for free twice. They are very hard to come by. I haven’t found a single store that sells them, since the retailer doesn’t have them in their collection. No clue as to why. It’s a very pretty plant.

And it’s actually a local plant for the Indian dwarf puffers.

An extremely beautiful aquarium plant circled by light-green and finely branched leaves. In the right growing conditions with added CO2 and a nutritious bottom this plant grows fast. In good light it forms horizontal side shoots and becomes attractive and bushy. Most decorative when several stems are planted in a small group. In open aquariums it sometimes sends shoots above the water surface, forming small blue flowers.
