| Ranunculus limosella is a
small and beautiful plant well suited for foreground
decoration or for tanks designed after the Nature Aquarium
concept. It is an amphibious plant which growth equally
well above or below water though the growth is probably
enhanced by CO2 enrichment when
grown submerged. In the land form R. limosella
flowers with a 5 mm unpretentious yellow-purple flower. R.
limosella is easily confused with various species in
the genus of Lilaeopsis
though R. limosella has a distinct petiole and
blade compared to the more undifferentiated leaf of Lilaeopsis.
