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.

Water Poppy (Hydrocleys nymphoides) is a beautiful aquatic plant known for its glossy, lily-like leaves and bright green color. In warmer conditions, it blooms cute yellow flowers that resemble poppies, hence its common trade name. If you're looking for pond plants that add character and texture to an outdoor or indoor pond, or a large planted aquarium with a marginal area, this one’s a great pick!

Water poppies provide several benefits, including natural filtration and coverage for fish or shrimp. They are generally easy to grow when planted in nutritious soil and provided with high light. In outdoor setups, this aquatic plant loves full sun but does not tolerate colder climates well. When happy, regular trimming is necessary to manage its growth and spread, and it can be propagated easily by separating runners and replanting.
