Echinodorus Decumbens

Echinodorus decumbens is a lesser-known sword with long, narrow, lightly wavy green leaves that arch outward into an elegant, fountain-like rosette. It's a robust root-feeder that appreciates root tabs and rewards them with impressive size. Its slimmer leaf profile makes it a graceful alternative to bulkier swords in the midground or background.
