✂️ Care

Do not plant the rhizome too deep in the substrate. Substrate nutrition strongly stimulates growth. When transplanting, 'crypt-melt' can occur — this is normal and the plant will recover within a few weeks. Liquid fertilizer like Sera Florena supports healthy growth.

Combines beautifully with Cryptocoryne Parva for a varied, compact foreground.
