Hi AnhBui, Looks like java fern to me

Hi Roy, it looks like the young java fern. But this one has wavy and needle leaves. I am told that this plant has been found at the central of Vietnam years ago

Hi all,
It is a fern, so it maybe one of the (many) forms of "Java Fern" <"Microsorum pteropus">.

But this one has wavy and needle leaves. I am told that this plant has been found at the central of Vietnam years ago

The species of Microsorum listed for Vietnam are:
Microsorum baithoense
Microsorum fortunei
Microsorum membranaceum
Microsorum piliferum
Microsorum punctatum
Microsorum steerei
Microsorum subtriquetrum

Hi all,

Microsorum fortunei

<"Looks promising">, but I have no idea whether you can grow it submerged.

Hi all,<"Looks promising">, but I have no idea whether you can grow it submerged.

It's already submerged. The portion I took pictures is in another tank. The portions I have much bigger than this one, and they are part of my current tank

Hi all,

anyone can id it please?

Judging by the flower it looks like a Rotala sp. Rotala indica "Bonsai" (below) would be an option, but I'm not sure the leaves should have a point, even when it is grown emersed.

Looks similar to a pretty American rotala I like rotala ramosior ☺ http://www.theaquaticplantsociety.org/rotala-ramosior/

Talk again today and it looks like Ludwigia inclinata. Still early to say but very promising

 

[HannahFergusonFan]

Plants are hard to judge sometimes, especially stem plants that are grown as emersed rather than submerged. plants look entirely different when they are emersed such as didiplis, Luwigia Inclinta var. cuba etc so some times its hard to judge. retailers usually sell plants which are grown in emersed condition.

Hi all,

It doesn't look like it was a Ludwigia (Onagraceae) type flower, I still think it is a plant from the Lythraceae.

I am going to ask local shop keeping one bush for me. Search a bit more and looks similar to Rotala densiflora

Here is what I got from Googling

Hi all,

Search a bit more and looks similar to Rotala densiflora

That looks promising. I can't really tell from the photos but your plant looks to have a short stalk ("pedicel") to the flower, while in Rotala densiflora it looks to be stalkless ("sessile").

A flower would be useful, Ludwigia has a <"relatively large, four petalled, yellow flower">.

There is a rotala sp. vietnam for sale at aquasabi as well? https://www.aquasabi.com/aquatic-plants/background/rotala-sp-vietnam?search=rotala vietnam

Came back local shop and watched the plant. Its leaves turning green and longer than emersed leaves. Nesaea pedicellata is a candidate as the owner told me. And here is result returned from my search
