Description
Proserpinaca palustris or American comb leaf is a stem plant that thrives with either light green or red leaves - depending on the light conditions. It grows moderately to quickly, but requires a good supply of nutrients, sufficient CO2 and develops a splendid copper and red tint in strong light. Its leaf shape is characteristic: the comb-shaped leaves are a welcome change from other plants. In the middle and background it works particularly well as a solitaire, but it also tolerates group arrangements.
- Light requirement: medium to sunny
- Optimal temperature: 10 to 28°C
- Water values: soft to hard, very tolerant
- pH value: 5 to 7, tolerant
- Addition of CO2 and nutrients: recommended
- Propagation: cuttings
Our expert Oliver Knott recommends:
The American comb leaf is an excellent specimen plant: the interesting colour and its serrated leaves set accents - ideal for lush underwater gardens!
