Hygro maybe?

Back from my South Florida adventures and have some goodies. It almost seems like some kind of hygro. Any ideas?

I think you got two ludwigia species...repens and something else.

And this is correct........ There are several varieties of hygrophila polysperma. The most common we see in tanks is the Sunset Hygro. Its one of the few that look nice.
