Tropica In Vitro Bacopa caroliniana

Tropica In Vitro Bacopa caroliniana

100% sterile laboratory aquarium plants in sealed cups.

Bacopa caroliniana has been used as an aquarium plant for many years.
It originates from the USA and quickly grows to 30 cm tall, while the stems are 3-4 cm wide. Apart from its relatively high light requirement, it is an undemanding plant.

Because of its slow growth, it is one of the few stem plants that do not require much care.

Like most stem plants, it is most effective when planted in a small group. It can be easily propagated by cuttings, by taking side shoots and planting them in the soil.
