SAGITTARIA SUBULATA VAR. PUSILLA – Narrow-Leaf Aquarium Foreground Plant
Sagittaria subulata var. pusilla is a beloved dwarf variant of the traditional Sagittaria subulata, known for its thin, ribbon-like leaves that resemble Vallisneria. Native to the Americas, this plant is ideal for the aquarium foreground, where it forms a dense and tidy carpet. Its growth is highly variable: it can stay low and compact under good conditions, but it can also reach up to 40 cm in height, making it an attractive background option.
To maintain a short carpet in the foreground, regularly remove longer-leaved runners. Sagittaria subulata var. pusilla thrives in moderately hard water but tolerates a wide range of temperatures and hardness levels. With proper lighting and CO2 supplementation, it ensures healthy, steady growth.
