Staurogyne repens is a stunning new member of the acanthus family found in Brazil. It’s a bit similar to a miniature Hygrophila in appearance, but it’s an excellent foreground plant. Its growth is exceedingly slow and in ideal conditions it will creep over the growing medium. Powerful illumination and a decent source of nutrients are required to grow this variety. Staurogyne will produce many new horizontal shoots after frequent pruning, and will ultimately provide a lovely, dense mass of foliage. These beauties pair well with Hemianthus callitrichoides in aquascapes.
