The all to familiar "what am I?" thread

[Noahma]

Myself and ghe member who gave me this lowly stem are both wondering what it is. It seems to grow like bamboo.

There is a slight orange sheen to the leaves.

Looks like hygroryza aristata when it's planted.

It's missing those "corn" looking parts though.

OP, how fast does it grow?

[Jeffww]

poeacea sp. or something.

That is exactly what it looks like. But a different color shade to the leaves.

That is under-developed H. aristata. It came out of my tank. It was growing under the hulking specimens of the same species.


Looks okay planted. I have never planted it, may have to try.

Those corn things only grow when they are floating. I'm pretty sure it is hygroryza aristata. Look at the side roots.

I have hygroyza aristata, this is much smaller, and a different leaf shape.

[Jeffww]

Would never have guessed that. Neat.

I had it planted long time ago, that's how I knew what it looked like. Beautiful plant indeed! I like how it stands out from all the other plants.
