Littorella uniflora

Product description

About the species

The appearance of Littorella uniflora makes it easily recognizable in the aquarium. It grows wild on seashores in Europe, North America and South America. Tolerates fairly low light intensity, but this will contribute to the length of the leaves. Each rosette is planted separately, a few cm apart.

They will easily send out runners. Over time, a very characteristic carpet of fat and fleshy leaves – each 2-5 cm long and 0.1-0.3 cm wide – will be created. Be careful when maintaining the tank, the leaves are easily damaged. Littorella uniflora is suitable for terrariums and garden ponds too.

FAQ about Littorella uniflora

How do I plant Littorella uniflora?

Remove the plant from the cup, gently rinse away the nutrient gel and divide it into several small portions. Plant them with some space between each portion so they can establish.

Is Littorella uniflora free from snails and algae?

In vitro plants are grown under sterile conditions and normally arrive free from snails, algae and pesticides, making them suitable for sensitive shrimp aquariums.

Does Littorella uniflora need CO₂?

Requirements depend on the species. CO₂ and balanced plant nutrition often produce denser, healthier growth, but follow the light and care requirements in the product description.

What matters during the first few weeks?

Provide stable lighting and nutrition, avoid major changes and remove deteriorating leaves. Newly planted specimens often need time to adapt to submerged growth.
