Pilularia?



Hey everyone.

I aquired a small bit of a new and strange plant as a
hitch hiker on something else.  It is a very small,
green chain plant.  The runners and leaves are hard to
tell apart and look the same---very, very thin and
delicate.  It is about one half inch high.  Each plant
has two or three leaves.  I have two small chains of
the stuff, and one has some healthy looking roots on
it.  It has a grassy appearance.  Sound familiar to
anyone?

The Baensch Atlas books show two Pilularia (I think
this name is correct) species that look a bit like it
but taller with runners thicker than the runners.  I'm
not even sure it's aquatic, but it looks like it
somehow.  

Does anyone have the answer to this mystery?
Later, Cavan.
