    Hi All,

    Recently i just got 1 plant from lfs, but i'm not sure which sp it is, i tried to checked over tropica.dk, but didn't get any recognizable.

    Sorry for the blurred picture, will take again when i free. The plant got around 6 leaf on each part of the stalk.

    Are they Hygrophila Polysperma or from the Hygrophila family? You can compare them with the Google images. Another thing is how much did you pay for the plant. If it is below 2 gold coins, then it should be it.

    Thanks, it got a bit similiar with Hygrophila sp, but to be sure, still need to re-check again first.
    Yeah, it is very cheap only.

    It should be "If it is below $2, then it should be it."

    I think your plant is not H. Polysperma but Didiplis Diandra. I copy the following picture from Mizu World and you can check it with your plant.

    Re: Plant ID needed

    Hi Bro, thanks... Checking on it now.

    Actually i do a comparison with the limnophila sp vietnam also, it got some similarities with it too, just that Limnophila sp seems to have a more thinner stalk. As for Didiplis Diandra, i checked the picture through tropika.dk it seems that the plant stalk was more towards to brownish than greenish as what mine looks like.

    I think the plant is still in emerge form. Wait a while for it to grow, then trim and see what's the new leaves to judge..
