Die Pflanze ist zwar schon lange wissenschaftlich bestimmt, wurde aber erst vor einigen Jahren für die Aquaristik „entdeckt“. Mit ihren sehr dekorativen, stark gewellten Blatträndern gehört sie wohl mit zu den schönsten Vordergrundpflanzen. Auf den ersten Blick denkt man an eine Rosettenpflanze, sie ist jedoch eine stark gestauchte Stängelpflanze. Wenn man einige grundlegende Kulturbedingungen erfüllt, bildet die Pogostemon helferi wunderschöne Pflanzenpolster: gute bis intensive Beleuchtung, Temperaturen um 25 °C, mittelhartes Wasser. Unter diesen Voraussetzungen ist ihre Blattfarbe sattgrün.

In this case, it is easiest to choose plants that also grow in the emersed form (i.e. above water). Aquaristic plants that grow emers often bloom differently than they do submersed. In-vitro plants are best suited for planting in a Wabi-Kusa jar. It is also possible to grow submerged plants in a Wabi-Kusa, but this does require some practice. To ensure natural circulation of moisture, there is a condensation drain in the glass to ensure that moisture is not lost as quickly. The jars are supplied with a form-fitting lid, to ensure normal air exchange, a small hole was drilled at the top of the side.Designed plant glass for Wabi-Kusa cultures Minimalist, cool design Bring you a piece of nature in any room - easy to maintainDimensions: (W x H) 270 x 508 millimeters; volume 28.7 liters Lighting: LED 10 watts, 5600 Kelvin

Marsilea hirsuta gehört zur Familie der Kleefarngewächse und ist in Australien beheimatet. Aufgrund der geringen Wuchsgröße wird er auch als Zwergkleefarn bezeichnet. Bei Sumpfbedingungen außerhalb des Wassers bildet die Pflanze kleine kleeblattförmige Blättchen, unter Wasser bilden sich meist eiförmige Blättchen aus die stark an die Pflanze Glossostigma erinnern. Der Zwergkleefarn ist aber bedeutend einfacher in der Kultur und besonders pflegeleicht. Es dauert zwar eine gewisse Zeit bis sich der Pflegling im Aquarium eingewöhnt hat, aber nach und nach bildet sich ein attraktiver Pflanzenteppich. Idealerweise sollten die emersen Triebe vor der Pflanzung komplett abgeschnitten werden, nach und nach bilden sich die neuen submersen Triebe.
