Pearlweed

Pearlweed is a versatile little plant that works equally well as a foreground carpet or a midground filler. Tiny round leaves on delicate stems give it a soft, natural look. With CO2 it carpets beautifully; without it, it grows more upright as a bushy midground plant.

Sold as a dozen stems.
