This plant originates from South America and stems become 25-60 cm long with 10 cm long leaves. Under water Hygrophila costata has relatively narrow leaves which are grouped close together. Plants sold in the shops are normally cultivated above water, and have rounder leaves with larger gaps between them. 

Hygrophila costata was called Hygrophila corymbosa 'Angustifolia' until recently.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 4 reviews)

Harper J. ★★★★★

The leaves are much denser and closer together than my other stem plants, giving it a nice full look even when not fully grown. It rooted into the substrate within just a few days and started visibly growing.

Violet K. ★★★★★

The leaves are much narrower than I expected from the photo, but they're packed tightly along the stem and give a nice dense look once planted. Growth seems steady after just a week in my tank.

Ava ★★★★★

The stems have already grown about 10 cm in my tank in just a week, and the narrow leaves are tightly packed together just like the description says. It's taking off beautifully under moderate light, giving my setup a lush, natural look.
