Corkscrew Vallisneria

Corkscrew Val is instantly recognizable for its tightly spiraled, ribbon-like leaves that twist from base to tip in a lively corkscrew. It's a hardy, undemanding rosette plant that spreads by runners into a dense grassy stand, perfect for softening the back and sides of a tank. Give the roots a nutrient-rich substrate and it'll fill in fast.
