Echinodorus Small Bear - Potted

Echinodorus Small Bear - Unpotted Plants (Imported from Singapore)

Echinodorus Small Bear Sword is the smaller variety of a similar species, Echinodorus Big Bear. Like most swords, these plants should be planted directly into the substrate.  When using substrates such as sand or gravel, it is important to supply the plants with root tabs as Echinodorus are heavy root feeders. The plant can be grown both emersed and submerged and often times, new leaves can grow to the top above the water line. Overall, this plant is easy and undemanding and very suitable for larger tanks.
