Myriophyllum Roraimi Bronze Milfoil

Bronze Milfoil (Myriophyllum roraima) is a rare and visually striking stem plant from South America, prized for its finely pinnate, feathery leaves that display a warm bronze to copper-green colouration — a distinctive palette that sets it apart from the more common green milfoils. Its delicate, whorled foliage creates a soft, flowing texture in the background of any planted aquascape, and under high light the bronzed tones deepen beautifully, adding a rich, autumnal warmth to the composition.

Propagation: Take stem cuttings of 5–10cm, remove lower leaves, and replant into the substrate. Grows at a moderate pace and benefits from regular trimming to maintain density.
