INFORMATION!

BRAZILIAN ELODEA
Egeria densa

photo of egeria densa - BrazilianElodea and hydrilla

Elodea is sometimes confused with Hydrilla verticallata. The major differences in the two species are that the elodea has large showy flowers while hydrilla has only small white flowers. Other major distinguishing features are that elodea is smooth to the touch if you pull a stem through your fingers, and it has serrulate leaf margins where hydrilla is rough and has sharply toothed leaf margins.
