 Proserpinaca palustris, also known as Mermaid weed, is a beautiful stem plant that will add great contrast to your aquarium. Its leaves start out a vibrant green color with choppy, serrated edges.  When allowed to grow under high-intensity lighting, the leaves will become more bristle-like, resembling tiny, delicate combs.  Additionally, the leaves will gradually change from just green to a variety of pink and golden hues.  This plant will certainly add a pop of color to your tank.
