This plant has beautiful hammered leaves with a tiny tip. The dimensions relies on the amount of light, and in poor light it is quite a small plant. It appears great in small groups.

Echinodorus parviflorus 'Tropica' was selected and introduced to the aquarium trade by Tropica Nurseries of Denmark. The rosette sword plant, as it is more popularly known in the US, is unlike most other sword plants in the fact that it is smaller than most. Echinodorus parviflorus 'Tropica' may be used in fore - midground areas of the planted aquarium.

A stunning midground to foreground plant...very interesting leaf shape and texture.
