Tropica Helanthium bolivianum 'Quadricostatus' (Potted)

$16.99Price
Quantity

Helanthium 'Quadricostatus' from South America has characteristic light green leaves 10-15 cm long which offer a great contrast to the darker aquarium plants. It is most beautiful when planted in groups, each rosette becoming 15-20 cm wide. Thrives well even at a rather low light. In good conditions, it produces runners which spread over the bottom. Very pale leaves are a sign of micro-nutrient shortage.


Care requirements: Difficulty: Easy (per Tropica). Light demand: Low. CO2 demand: Low; grows well without added CO2. Growth rate: Medium. Placement: Midground to background (rosette). Height in tank: 10-15+ cm. Supplied as a plant in a 5 cm pot.
