HYGROPHILA CORYMBOSA 'COMPACT' – Nano Foreground Aquarium Plant
Hygrophila corymbosa 'Compact', also known as 'Kompakt', is an extremely compact and distinctive variety of the classic Hygrophila corymbosa, likely resulting from a spontaneous mutation. This plant is characterized by its very dense leaf arrangement and strongly compressed stems, creating a neat and organized appearance.
Emersed plants feature dark green leaves, while submerged aquarium specimens develop bright green foliage, bringing a luminous effect to any aquatic setup. Its slow growth rate makes Hygrophila corymbosa 'Compact' a perfect choice for aquarists seeking low-maintenance plants, as it requires significantly less trimming compared to other Hygrophila varieties.
Due to its compact size and tidy growth, this plant is ideal for the foreground of small to medium-sized aquariums or as a contrasting element in more complex layouts. The atypical, densely arranged leaves offer a refreshing change from the usual foreground plants.
