Description: Bacopa Monnieri, commonly known as Water Hyssop or Brahmi, is an aquatic plant renowned for its delicate appearance and therapeutic history. As a member of the Plantaginaceae family, this herbaceous perennial is native to wetlands in Asia, North and South America, and Australia. Its emersed growth showcases pairs of opposite, succulent leaves along the stems, while its submersed form features finer, dissected leaves. Bacopa Monnieri’s overall appearance is a testament to simplicity, making it a popular choice for both aquarium enthusiasts and herbalists alike.

Beyond its ornamental value in aquascaping, Bacopa Monnieri is recognized for its use in traditional medicine, particularly in Ayurveda, where it is believed to offer cognitive and adaptogenic benefits.
