Hygrophila Odora - Rare African Aquarium Plant with Fern-Like Foliage

Introducing Hygrophila Odora, a unique and rare African aquarium plant that adds a striking accent to your aquascape! Native to West African wetlands, this Hygrophila species stands out with its light green, pinnately cut, fern-like leaves in its submerged form.
