Cryptocoryne Axelrodi - GroWoW! Series

This new series is Sreepadma Tissue Culture plants hardened and grown emersed to full size under controlled conditions in our farm.

Echinodorus grissibachia

A small very slow growing plant which can be used in foreground and midground.

Gymnocoronis spilanthoides

This stem plant can be grown under various conditions and can tolerate high temperatures. There should be adequate space between the stems while planting.

Lagenandra Meeboldii - Green

Undemanding plant but will do very well in nutrient rich substrate, bright light, CO2 and adequate nutrient dosing.

Cryptocoryne cognatoides

Easy to grow plant once it becomes established in the aquarium.

Cuphea anagalloidea

Cuphea anagalloidea is a small, demanding stem plant. Its shoots grow around 1.5 to 2 cm wide, measured from leaf tip to leaf tip. The striking red colour on the upper side of the submersed leaves is most intensive under strong light, and it can look like it was brushed on. The red leaves often have small green spots.

Hemianthus umbrosum

This plant grows faster in bright light conditions and CO2 injection. Should be planted in small groups to make a bush.

Nelumbo nucifera -Pink

Fertilizer tabs are required for this plant to grow well and to flower.

Bolbitis heteroclita 'difformis'

Bolbitis heteroclita "difformis" is a small, fine tripinate -leaved form of B. heteroclita, originating from the Philippines widely known as Mini Bolbitis. This fern grows very slowly under water and grows best when cultivated as a terrestrial plant.

This is more suitable to grow emerged in paludariums/terrariums/phytospheres etc & also suitable for moist & warm terrariums/ Vertical Gardens etc.

The best method to plant this is tying it on a piece of wood / rough stone /tree root with a dark cotton thread or fishing line to attach the plant until the roots holds the material & doesn’t appreciate being planted in the substrate in submersed condition & the rhizome should not buried in the substrate . Low light, low Co2 & very less nutrients are advised.

Microcarpaea minima

This plant is not very hard to keep, but will do best with CO2 injection. Multiply by lateral shoots.
