The water milfoil arrived alive and looked exactly as described. It spread quickly in my pond and adds a natural, flowing look. Easy to maintain and grows well in partial shade.

Grew well in my 55-gallon aquarium. The leaves are delicate and create a nice texture in the midground. I’ve had it for two months and it’s still healthy.
