Product Details

A decorative and easy-to-maintain plant

Sagittaria subulata

Native to South America, Sagittaria subulata is both an aesthetic and functional plant. It is known for its rosette-shaped foliage with bright green, ribbon-like leaves that grow quickly in aquariums. Depending on growing conditions, it remains low and grassy or can reach up to 50 cm in height.

This adaptability makes it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced aquarists. It can be planted in groups spaced a few inches apart to allow for rapid expansion. Its lighting requirements are moderate, but a good supply of CO2 will promote its growth and compact appearance.

A perfect choice for freshwater biotopes

This plant is ideal for structuring an aquarium and creating a natural landscape. Its ability to grow in both freshwater and slightly brackish water makes it versatile. It also contributes to the balance of the aquarium by absorbing excess nutrients , thus helping to reduce algae.
