Like most stem plants, propagation can be done simply by cutting along the stem and replanting the cuttings. Notes: Photos show the plant in its emersed vs. submerged form.The form you receive will be based on availability and seasonality. If you receive an emersed plant, simply plant the stems in your aquarium substrate and new, submerged-grown leaves will grow within a few days. CO2 injection and quality aquarium soil will yield better growth. Please research appropriately to ensure your plant thrives. Please be sure to remove this plant from its lead bunch. Remove the cotton surrounding the roots and plant into a quality substrate. For instructions on how to properly plant \”lead bunch\” aquarium plants, clickhere.
