It's one of those newer ludwigia's, might even just have a sp. notation at this point.

I have some. It needs some TLC before I have any to spread around. My tanks were neglected for a few months. I got a bunch moved over to the apartment now though so I should start having my usualy 20 bags of plants at the auctions more frequently. :)

I have been looking for it as well on other forums, I have only been offered 2-3 stems, still seems fairly rare

Couldnt give it away last year. Its an easy grower - I'm surprised that you
cannot get more than a few stems.

I think it's harder to find now because it is such a weed. It sidebranches like there's no tomorrow. It was popular, then everyone had it, now they realize they don't want to trim it every week anymore. :)
