Murdannia keisak Tropica

Cut it back once and it immediately sends out side shoots, so filling out a background clump took way less time than I expected. The texture really does look like little bamboo stalks rather than grass, which gives the tank a nice structured feel.

The upright growth habit is exactly what I wanted for the back of my tank, and it started branching nicely after the first trim.

This stem plant truly grows upright just as described, and after a few trims it started branching out nicely to fill in the background. It adds a fresh bamboo-like look to my tank without being a grass at all.
