Tropica Gratiola viscidula 1-2-Grow!

Gratiola viscidula is a relatively new stem plant from the southeastern USA with a distinctive prickly-rugged look thanks to its short, slightly curved leaves. It grows upright in compact form and is well suited to the midground, where regular trimming keeps it dense and bushy. It thrives with good light and benefits from added CO2 but is not demanding.

Care requirements: Difficulty: Medium (per Tropica). Light demand: Medium. CO2 demand: Medium; added CO2 is beneficial. Growth rate: Medium. Placement: Midground to background (stem group). Height in tank: 10-30+ cm. Aquarium plant from tissue culture in closed cup.
