Unusual and a rather sought-after new type of Cryptocoryne!
Crypt 'Flamingo' is a stunningly colorful foreground plant. Once this gets planted, let it be for some time. This type of Cryptocoryne is a little more fragile and demanding than the usual Crypts and should not be disturbed.
EMERGENT-GROWN OR SUBMERGED-GROWN
Be sure to remove the plant from its gel before planting. Simply loosen it with your fingers and wash away under running water. Plant gently as usual.
