Hygrophila intermedia

A little-known Hygrophila from northern Thailand, known from only two wild records in the highlands west of Chiang Mai. Like its relatives it is presumably a moisture-loving herb of stream banks and seasonally wet ground, so treat it as a warm, bright, wet-footed bog or emersed plant.
