✂️ Care
Plant Cryptocoryne undulata in a nutrient-rich substrate. The plant may temporarily lose leaves after planting (Crypt-meltdown) — this is normal and the plant will recover. Regularly add liquid plant food, such as Sera Florena, for optimal growth.
💡 Planter's tip
Combine 'Broad Leaf' with smaller Cryptocoryne species such as Cryptocoryne parva or Cryptocoryne wendtii for a varied and natural Crypt-aquarium.
