Lagenandra ovata, commonly known as the Malayan Sword, is a beautiful and versatile aquatic plant that adds a touch of elegance to any freshwater aquarium. Originally described by Carl Linnaeus and later reclassified by George Henry Kendrick Thwaites, this plant is known for its lush foliage and adaptability. Offered in tissue culture form, Lagenandra ovata ensures you receive a healthy, pest-free specimen ready to thrive in your aquarium.
Lagenandra ovata enhances the visual appeal of any aquarium with its lush, colorful leaves. Its adaptability and ease of care make it suitable for both novice and experienced aquarists. By choosing tissue culture plants, you ensure a strong, healthy start free from common aquarium pests.
Lagenandra thwaitesii's adaptability shines through in its growth patterns. When nurtured in an aquarium setting, its submerged growth yields elongated leaves that reach for the light, creating a dynamic vertical presence. Alternatively, if allowed to thrive emersed, its leaves become shorter and broader, resembling nature's artistry on the water's edge.
