Water: Watergrass thrives in aquatic environments, requiring high humidity and consistently moist conditions. Water weekly to maintain moisture. Typically grown outdoors, it flourishes in water gardens or pond edges, effectively filtering and oxygenating water, highlighting its connection to aquatic ecosystems.

Propagation: Propagation of watergrass involves seed sowing in water or wet substrates. Success relies on warm temperatures, light, and clean, nutrient-rich water. Key steps include collecting seeds, scattering them in still water, allowing natural germination, and managing plant density for optimal growth conditions.
