Cryptocoryne x willisii
Origin: Sri Lanka
Cryptocoryne x willisii 'Lucens' is a compact hybrid Cryptocoryne with slender, upright dark green leaves and attractive reddish-brown undersides. Hardy and undemanding, it adapts to a wide range of water conditions and performs well in low-light, low-tech setups. The Tropica 1-2-Grow tissue culture format supplies approximately 25 sterile, snail-free, algae-free plantlets ideal for shrimp tanks and pest-sensitive aquascapes.
Rinse tissue culture gel from plantlets before planting in substrate. No CO2 or high lighting required. Allow 4–8 weeks for root establishment; some initial melt of tissue culture leaves is normal before new aquatic leaves emerge. Fertilize monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer or root tabs for best results. Propagates via daughter plants from the rhizome.
