Hemianthus Micranthemoides- Pearl Weed

Hemianthus micranthemoides, also known as 'Pearl Weed,' is a visually stunning plant native to North America. With its slender, arched leaves, it is reminiscent of a miniature Egeria plant. When exposed to intense lighting, this plant displays its unique trailing growth, making it an excellent choice for a foreground plant as it can grow to heights of 10-20 cm and widths of 2-3 cm.

The compact arrangement of its delicate, light-green leaves is truly a sight to behold. In terrariums, Hemianthus micranthemoides forms a lush and compact cushion, adding a touch of natural elegance. Fun fact: this plant was previously known as Micranthemum micranthemoides.
