Marsilea hirsuta advice?

Nick593 said:
Hi I've been given some Marsilea hirsuta for free and I'm looking to use it as a carpet plant in my new scape. I'm just wondering how to plant and prune the plant as I've read it can grow up to 10cm tall (http://www.thegreenmachineonline.com/pr ... ea-hirsuta) and if anyone can give any advice on how to keep it?

the large leaf only appear in emers form. underwater condition even with low light will not cause this plan to grow up that high.

For planting just cut down the large leaf after a few cm and split this up to single plantlets. Then plant it densely.
