Planting & Care

Carefully remove the plant from its pot and rinse away the growing medium before planting. Gently separate the stems if required and plant them individually into nutrient-rich aquarium substrate, allowing enough space for healthy growth.

Provide consistent lighting, regular fertilisation and stable water conditions to encourage vibrant foliage and strong development. CO₂ supplementation is highly beneficial, particularly for maintaining compact growth and enhancing colour.

Regular trimming will help control its height and encourage denser growth. Healthy cuttings can also be replanted to create a fuller display.
