Aponogeton Crispus

Easy to care for - Low light - Fast growing

--split--

This low light plant grows from a bulb and creates long, wavy-edged leaves that flow beautifully in an aquarium. In fact, this is one of the main species sold as a “betta bulb” at chain pet stores because they’re so easy to care for. Just place the bulb on top of the substrate, and watch it rapidly sprout leaves and roots. Sometimes it goes through a dormant period where, for a couple of months, the larger leaves die back. Just leave the plant in the aquarium, and new growth will once again emerge. This great-looking plant that grows very fast, gets fairly tall, and can even produce flowers for you.
