ADA – Utricularia graminifolia (Low Tech)
Utricularia graminifolia is a grass-like bladderwort species from the Asian tropics that grows into a lush bright light green lawn. It is thus quite popular in aquascaping, too. It is not always easy to cultivate, but under favorable conditions (lots of light, soft water, CO2, macro- and micronutrient fertilization) it is a fast grower.
