Description

Amazon frogbit (Limnobium laeviatum) is an easy to care for, floating aquarium plant. It is native to Central and South America, though in recent years it has reported in North America as an invasive species. It is now found throughout much of California, and continues to spread via releases and escapes from the aquarium trade. This plant is very popular as an ornamental plant, and is often found in both ponds and aquariums. The juvenile plants grow leaves that lie flat with the water, while the more mature plants will have emergent leaves above the water. They produce small, white flowers upon reaching maturity, which makes them one of the most attractive floating plants available.

NOTE: 1 portion size is around 4-6 plantlets or more

Awesome growth

This has been in my tank for around 10 days now and it is growing like a champ! I ordered 1 portion because I wanted to watch it fill in the air tube corral I have floating in my 10 gallon. It arrived quickly and was well packed.New leaves are popping up and lots of tiny plants are appearing. The roots are growing great, maybe around a quarter or half inch per day or so (I added liquid ferts). Highly recommended for bettas. He loves hanging out in the root system.
