✂️ Care
Gently rinse the culture gel under lukewarm water. Plenty of light and CO₂ are essential for compact, colourful growth. Liquid nutrients like Sera Florena further enhance colour intensity and vein patterns.
💡 Planting Tip
Plant in groups of 5–7 stems for maximum colour effect. The elegant vein pattern shows best with sufficient light.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How do I prepare an In Vitro cup?
Remove the plant from the cup, rinse off the culture gel under lukewarm water, and plant in the substrate.
Can I keep this plant without CO₂?
It's possible, but the plant will stretch out and lose its compact shape and intense colour.
My plant arrived yellow or limp — is that normal?
Yes, In Vitro plants are grown above water and adapt. Give the plant 1–2 weeks. If problems persist, please contact us.
Is this plant suitable for a shrimp tank?
Yes — especially as In Vitro, it's ideal for shrimp tanks, being completely free of pests.
