Marsilea angustifolia (Narrowleaf Four-Leaf Clover) – Tissue Culture Cup

The Marsilea angustifolia, commonly known as Narrowleaf Four-Leaf Clover, is a unique carpeting plant that brings a delicate, clover-like appearance to the foreground of freshwater aquariums. With its fine stems and narrow four-lobed leaves, it resembles miniature shamrocks dancing in the current. Its soft, grass-like texture creates a natural meadow-like effect that’s perfect for aquascapes focused on subtle detail and flow.

Offered in a tissue culture cup, this plant is grown in sterile conditions, free of pests, algae, and snails—making it perfect for shrimp tanks and pristine planted setups. It establishes slowly but steadily and benefits from CO₂ injection and good lighting for dense, horizontal growth.
