Bunched stem plant. Cabomba is a very popular aquarium plant from South America owing to its beautiful foliage. It reaches 30-80 cm and each stem can become 5-8 cm wide.The least demanding of the Cabomba-species, but still causes problems in poorly lit aquariums. If there is not sufficient light, try Limnophila sessiliflora, which requires less light. Most decorative when planted in groups. Eaten locally as a vegetable.

Bunched plants are young stems held with small anchors or coconut fibre. They may have few or no roots, which develop soon after planting. Most are supplied in emersed form, old leaves may melt as new underwater growth appears.
