A perfect low light plant! Crypts generally grow very slowly and do not like to be disturbed, so plan accordingly!
I'd place these in the front, to mid-ground in your aquascaping, although I have a few that have grown up to 8 inches tall over three years.
Crypts will get darker, more pronounced color in higher light environments.
One of the lowest-light, and easiest-to-please plants I carry, you should nonetheless expect some leaf melt when it's shipped your way. These like to regrow their leaves when disturbed.

Bare-rooted version is also available! They come in Green, Red and Bronze colors!
One Potted Crypt plant will have multiple nodes and many leaves. Between 2-5" tall/ wide.
EMERGENT-GROWN
Growing requirements:

As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there's always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers!
