It likes light. During the flowering period, it is recommended to apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer once a week, and avoid excessive nitrogen fertilizer causing leggy growth. Also, remember to repot into a larger flowerpot as it grows, otherwise it is prone to the situation of being root-bound and unable to bloom more flowers.</p><p><img src="https://www.nongxun.net/uploadfile/ueditor/image/202507/175248184226354f.jpg" title="fbbfc28afbcb8aaee2042e2db0e11363" alt="fbbfc28afbcb8aaee2042e2db0e11363"></p><p><br></p><p>Brazilian waterweed</p><p>Brazilian waterweed is a perennial herbaceous plant of the genus Aster in the Asteraceae family.
