Notes

Tuberous plant from the water spike family. It is one of the most beautiful Aponogeton species for aquariums. Its bright green and transparent leaves are striking. The leaf blades are also distinctly bullous. As soon as the plant stagnates in growth, a resting phase must be induced. Cool water and darkening are necessary. This is best achieved with a small separate aquarium for approx. 3-4 months. Afterwards, it is replanted in the underwater landscape.
