✂️ Care

Plant the stems with enough space between them so that light penetrates everywhere — too densely planted goods will suffocate the lower parts. Ensure soft water (low KH) and CO₂ addition: these are the two most important factors for healthy growth. Combine with plenty of light for the best results.

💡 Planter's tip

The fine, light green structure forms a refreshing contrast with large-leaved or dark green plants in the background.
