Sagittaria subulata

Product description

About the species

Sagittaria subulata from South America is an ideal and unpretentious foreground plant whose short shoots form a compact group. Place individual plants 2-4 cm apart. This plant can sometimes cause problems because in certain conditions it can suddenly grow to a height of 50 cm as it gets older.

But if it is then moved to the background, it may become low again. In the aquarium, it sometimes sends up a long flower stalk to the surface and small white flowers unfold just above the surface of the water.

FAQ about Sagittaria subulata

How do I plant Sagittaria subulata?

Remove the plant from the cup, gently rinse away the nutrient gel and divide it into several small portions. Plant them with some space between each portion so they can establish.

Is Sagittaria subulata free from snails and algae?

In vitro plants are grown under sterile conditions and normally arrive free from snails, algae and pesticides, making them suitable for sensitive shrimp aquariums.

Does Sagittaria subulata need CO₂?

Requirements depend on the species. CO₂ and balanced plant nutrition often produce denser, healthier growth, but follow the light and care requirements in the product description.

What matters during the first few weeks?

Provide stable lighting and nutrition, avoid major changes and remove deteriorating leaves. Newly planted specimens often need time to adapt to submerged growth.
