Helanthium Vesuvius Aquatic Plant - Live Aquarium Plant for Fish Tanks, Freshwater Aquascaping & Aquatic Gardens

Product Description

Helanthium Vesuvius, previously known as Echinodorus Vesuvius, is a cultured aquatic plant species derived from Helanthium Angustifolia. Helanthium Vesuvius features thin leaves in a soft green hue. Its interesting growth pattern exhibiting a twisting behavior makes this aquatic plant a unique addition to the main aquatic plant family. Helanthium Vesuvius is quite hardy and will grow at a steady pace and pruning on a normal basis is necessary. Just like other rosette species, this particular aquatic plant is beautiful in groups or by itself. Propagation is also fairly simple and can be done by separating via the runners and replanting into a quality aquarium substrate. 

Tissue culture plants are grown in-vitro by laboratories who specialize in propagating aquatic plants. There is a huge selection of plant species that have been propagated this way. This is truly the best option for those who want absolutely zero unwanted pests, algae and pesticides. This makes them perfect for shrimp keepers and any planted tank enthusiasts alike.

NOTE: It is important to remove the tissue culture agar gel before planting. Simply wash the gel away, divide, and plant.
