PHYLLANTHUS FLUITANS – 1-2-Grow! Floating Plant, Algae-Free, Snail-Free, Pesticide-Free, Ideal for Aquariums and Ponds
Native to the American tropics, Phyllanthus fluitans is an extraordinary floating plant from the Phyllanthaceae family, similar to Salvinia but distinguished by its single-leaf structure per node. Its heart-shaped, water-repellent leaves conceal a thin stem that can occasionally produce small six-petaled white flowers. Under strong lighting, the leaves turn striking brownish-red, creating a stunning visual effect on the water’s surface.
This Tropica 1-2-Grow! version guarantees young plants sustainably cultivated in Denmark, completely free from algae, snails, and pesticides. Perfect for freshwater aquariums and garden ponds, these plants are safe for shrimp, sensitive fish, and invertebrates, ensuring a healthy and natural environment.
