A perfect low light plant! Crypts generally grow very slowly and do not like to be disturbed, so plan accordingly!
Lutea is a longer- leaved green plant that grows very similarly to most cryptocorynes. It's sword- shaped leaves are stunning en masse!
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!
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.
Potted plants are better established and average 6" tall.

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