This plant is grown in-vitro and is kept in a nutrient medium. Gently remove from cub and rinse in aquarium water to remove any medium. Seperate into portions and plant into substrate with aquascaping tweezers.

When planting in the aquarium small clumps (approx. 1/8 pot) should be placed a few centimetres apart to help the plants grow together more quickly.
