READ ME: Our aquarium plants vary in growth forms and will require time to transition to submerged or emersed conditions. We do our best to clean and inspect all plants prior to shipping but do not guarantee them to be snail free unless tissue culture is purchased.

Tissue culture plants are cultivated in sterile lab settings ensuring your plant is free from pests, snails and algae! These are young specimen that are grown in emersed forms. Gel should always be removed prior to planting.

Live plants are susceptible to stress and damage from transit. - This may appear in the form of minimal melt, leaf loss, cosmetic damage, etc. Refunds or replacements will not be issued for plants with viable root systems or that die out of our care.

Utricularia Graminifolia, commonly shortened to UG, is a unique plant that belongs to the bladderwort family. Utricularia Graminifolia is a marginal plant and can be found growing along waterlines in the wild. This gives it the ability to thrive both fully submerged in an aquarium or emersed, provided sufficient humidity is provided. UG is known to be slightly temperamental making it suitable for hobbyists with more experience. Utricularia Graminifolia typically prefers a nutrient-poor substrate with soft water and low to medium lighting levels. If submerged in an aquarium, we recommend CO2 injection as well. UG is carnivorous and will feed on small insects or aquatic organisms depending on its environment. It should also be noted that UG is a tropical and does not go through any periods of dormancy.

If successful in keeping this plant, Utricularia Graminifolia is an excellent foreground choice and offers a lush appearance in both aquariums and terrarium-like setups. Many aquarists like to utilize the DSM Method for starting this plant off given the absence of a root system, but care should be taken to ensure there is proper air circulation to prevent mold growth. Overall, once established, Utricularia Graminifolia is fairly easy going and does not demand more than it gives.
