Category: Aquarium Plants

This bamboo-looking stem plant is not a grass. It comes from Asia, where it often grows in rice fields.
The growth is upright, but the plant branches out willingly when it is cut back. 
The leaf is light green, approx. 1cm wide and 3-5cm long. The stem apex becomes reddish when exposed to CO2 and strong light. 
Due to quick growth, the longest shoots require ongoing cut back and some of the tops can be replanted, in order to maintain a beautiful and varied group of plants.

Amelia ★★★★★

Cut it back once and it immediately sends out side shoots, so filling out a background clump took way less time than I expected. The texture really does look like little bamboo stalks rather than grass, which gives the tank a nice structured feel.

David L. ★★★★★

The upright growth habit is exactly what I wanted for the back of my tank, and it started branching nicely after the first trim.

Chloe L. ★★★★★

This stem plant truly grows upright just as described, and after a few trims it started branching out nicely to fill in the background. It adds a fresh bamboo-like look to my tank without being a grass at all.
