❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How do I prepare an In Vitro cup?
Remove the plant from the cup, rinse the culture gel under lukewarm water, and tie the plant to wood or stone.
How do I get the reddest color?
Sufficient light enhances the reddish-brown hue. With low light, the plant will remain greener.
My plant arrived yellow or limp — is that normal?
Yes, In Vitro plants are grown emersed and will adapt. Give the plant 1–2 weeks. For persistent issues, please contact us.
Is this plant suitable for a shrimp tank?
Yes — especially as In Vitro, it is ideal for shrimp tanks, completely free of pests.
