    Yup H.Polysperma. Also got something called sunset which is pink with distinct white veins. Trim it ruthlessly and regularly. It's a darn weed!

    Used to love the plant becos of the many varieties available... But, yes, they grow VERY fast and becomes weed like... Their growth can be controlled, though, if the water is not changed regularly...

    this is a hygrophila species i brought back from thailand sometime ago, wild collected. But I don't have the species name though. Bought it at NA?

    Ceylon? Any other literature? The One in plant finder is a different growth form and do not have the brown patterns.
