"Didn't melt which is nice, slowly growing lil sprouts and leaves are spreading out a bit. Nice easy plant to maintain."
-Lynn D.
Such a pretty plant, and justifiably highly-sought!
Taiwan Lily (Nymphoides hydrophylla) is a stunning bright green, ruffled lily-type plant, that will reach right up to the surface of your water, and continue to send out little 'daughter'plants!
Oddly undemanding for its good looks, Taiwan lily also happens to be quick-growing and much hardier than it would seem. You need to try this plant!
Growing requirements:
- 65-80 Degrees Fahrenheit
- Ph 6-8
- Lower to medium light intensity.
- Grows quickly
- Gets more compact in high lights and co2
Taiwan Lily plantlets will arrive with at least three leaves.
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! 💚
