Utricularia graminifolia | Fine Groundcover InVitro

Utricularia graminifolia is a very fine, grass-like ground cover that forms a natural-looking, light green carpet in the aquarium. With its narrow, slightly curved leaves, it is ideal for the foreground and is particularly popular in Iwagumi and nature aquascapes.

As a carnivorous plant, Utricularia forms tiny bladder traps, but plays no role for fish or shrimp in the aquarium.
It is supplied InVitro in a sterile cup and is therefore 100% free of snails, algae, and pesticides. After thoroughly rinsing off the nutrient gel, it should be divided into very small portions and carefully planted, as it is more sensitive than many other ground covers.
