This Vallisneria prefers plenty of nourishment and light along with slightly hard water, however it can manage pretty properly with less. Vallisneria americana var. asiatica has twisted green leaf that make a stunning contrast when planted in groups. Its shorter leaves differ from most other Vallisneria-species and do not overshadow other plants in the aquarium. An easy plant that easily propagates via runners.
