✂️ Care

Plant widely apart for a natural grass-like effect, or close together for longer stems up to 50 cm. The plant propagates itself via runners and spreads naturally throughout the aquarium. Thanks to its wide tolerance for water parameters and temperature, this is one of the most forgiving plants available.

💡 Planter tip

Plant in the foreground for a grass-like effect, or let the plant grow tall in the midground or background for more height and volume.
