So, delivery was slow on these and the box was a torn up mess…but the plants inside were very well wrapped in other packaging. All of the plants look a little worse for wear. The crinum calamistratum is turning tan in the bag but I’m hoping that once they’re planted they will perk back up. Most of it is green still. They’re such a cool looking plant. I’m very excited to get them into my tank and see what they do.
Love Parva they grow small and I like to patch empty tank corners and next to rocks
I found these a bit hard to plant as they are small and tended to float up out of the substrate. That said, once anchored they have done very well. Look a bit like an upside down spider plant, with the 'babies' growing up instead of hanging down.
In just a month these cuttings have grown nicely, adding some very bright green and lacy texture in among the other plants in the tank
Cuttings I received were nice and healthy though not nearly the color of the ones pictured on the website. It's been almost and month and, so far, they aren't doing much.
Beautiful plant! Came in great shape with amazing coloration
This is the best Bucephekandra plants for the money. I will be back to purchase more
Terrific and already a week later new growth on all plants. Perfect
So far so good . Plants arrived alive and healthy looking
Ordered multiple plants a couple of months ago and really loved this one. It arrived healthy. I planted them with root tabs directly underneath in a moderately lit tank and they sprouted beautifully. The brightest green leaves in my photo are the new growth
Pretty shells. They seem to want to hand out at the top of the water. I'm not sure if this means the water is too cold or that they need more air. Two were dead.
received tissue culture ~3 weeks ago; one portion was enough to separate into 5 small clumps to distribute amid hardscape in 5gal nano tank. 0 melt, measurable growth w/o CO2. trimmed at week ~3.5 to keep it bushy, planted some of the trimmings (some with roots, some without) to see how they do, and am letting other trimmings stay at the surface as floaters for now. If they develop roots, will plant these as well or give away. Very pleased with this cute, healthy little plant! parameters are shifting as i cycle, but water is soft, pH 6.4-7; light moderate to high 6 hrs/day, low 2 hrs/day.
I have had the plants for about a week now. They are looking healthy and already spreading within the aqua scape.
The plant arrived immaculate and quite green. It was bigger than I expected too. I’m very happy with it.
