Beautiful full root plants. Not certain if they are all Dwarf Sagittaria. Three of them really look and grow like Val. Or Eel grass. Sending shoots as anticipated. Building the area as I planned. I keep them trimmed and they never quit giving. Just sorry that I can't buy more plants. Only a 10 gallon tank. Daku plants ROCK!!
This is one of my first pond plants and it is doing great . It already has started blooming - which is a tiny white flower. It is thriving! and most of all I don't have to water it - LOL
Love love love
Beautiful plants very healthy!!!!
It was cool for you to replace the bad plants. But what you sent wasn’t what I ordered & the grass had black beard algae on it. I removed them & trashed it. Thanks but no thanks.
