A perfect low light plant! The popular Cryptocoryne Wendtii is available in multiple beautiful color variants.
Color variations:
- Red, Green, Bronze: Standard varieties, very hardy and low-light tolerant. One of the lowest-light and easiest-to-please plants I carry. Available bare-root, potted, or in multi-packs.
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. As I said, slow growing!
Crypts generally grow very slowly and do not like to be disturbed, so plan accordingly!
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.
EMERGENT-GROWN or SUBMERGED-GROWN
Growing requirements:

As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there’s always a chance of harmless hitchhikers like snails or dwarf shrimp tagging along with your plants!
I personally keep several beneficial snail species in my tanks, including Colorful Ramshorns, Bronze Bladder and Pond Snails, Mini Rams, and Malaysian Trumpet Snails. These snails stay relatively small, help clean the aquarium, and do not eat healthy plants or cause harm. However, if you’d rather avoid any hitchhikers, I highly recommend checking out our blog on how to safely disinfect aquarium plants before adding them to your tank:

All plants are freshly snipped or harvested and packed right before shipment. I take great care in preparing every order and use methods that have consistently produced the best results over many years in the hobby. A lot of love goes into every package, so please don’t leave your plants sitting in a hot mailbox for too long 🙏
Thank you for looking, aqua friends! 💚
