Myriophyllum 'Rubricaule', commonly known as Red Stem Milfoil, is an attractive oxygenating pond plant featuring delicate feathery foliage carried on distinctive reddish stems.

This fast growing submerged plant helps maintain a healthy pond by absorbing excess nutrients, reducing algae growth, and increasing oxygen levels within the water. Its fine foliage provides valuable shelter for aquatic insects, tadpoles, and small fish, making it an excellent choice for wildlife ponds.

The attractive red stems add extra visual interest compared to traditional oxygenating plants, making it both practical and ornamental.
