Marsilea hirsuta

Marsilea hirsuta is a fascinating plant. It is often shipped with leaves that look like four-leaved clover. After an acclimation time its leaves change, though. Depending on the environment, it can assume a low growth habit with simple leaves looking like a large Glossostigma, however, it can also sprout leaves of different height divided into two, three or four parts, all depending on the conditions it grows in. No matter which form the leaves take, the plant will spread fast in your tank by runners.

New leaves of Marsilea have brown color. Those leaves are not rotten or dead.
