Myriophyllum species - Dwarf red stem parrot feather

The dwarf red stem parrot feather is a highly sought-after cultivar of the classic parrot feather, sold in the trade under the names Myriophyllum aquaticum 'Red Stem' or its synonym Myriophyllum brasiliensis 'Red Stem'

It features a far more compact growth habit and a striking color contrast, combining brilliant fire-red stalks with delicate, pale blue-green feathery leaves.

Compact Size: While the standard species can trailingly take over large swathes of water with stems up to 5 feet long, this dwarf variant grows into a much tighter form, typically reaching only 3 to 4 inches tall above the water line.
