Tropica Littorella uniflora CUP

Littorella uniflora or Strandling is a fine, small plant with a great effect! In the wild, it prefers to grow in the nutrient-rich bank soils of lakes, mainly in Europe, North and South America. In near-natural aquariums of all sizes, as a ground cover, it primarily plants open spaces - a charming lawn. In good light the leaves remain low and dense, runners form attractive carpets over time; when there is less light, the leaves become longer and thinner. It copes well in cold water tanks, decorates terrariums and is suitable for garden ponds as a border plant - a real all-rounder!

• Light requirement: frugal, but rather good lighting conditions
• Optimal temperature: 4 to 26°C
• Water values: high tolerance
• pH value: 5 to 8
• Addition of CO2 and nutrients: recommended
• Propagation: runners, division, separation

Tip: Each rosette should be planted individually, a few centimetres apart. It should be noted that the leaves are quite sensitive - please use high-quality tweezers! Since it grows very slowly, it should be left undisturbed.

Note: The cups are grown in the laboratory. Aquatic plants from the so-called in vitro culture are grown sterile. They are therefore also suitable for sensitive animals such as dwarf shrimp and can be used immediately. With in-vitro plants, there are no stowaways such as snails or parasites, and pesticides are also completely avoided.
