Aponogeton crispus

Aponogeton crispus is native to Sri Lanka and is arguably the most beginner-friendly Aponogeton species, renowned for growing vigorously from a dormant corm even under low light and without CO2. Its bright-green, lance-shaped leaves have attractively wavy or crisped margins and can reach 40 cm in tall tanks. It flowers readily in the aquarium, producing a forked inflorescence above the water surface. After blooming it may rest before producing a new flush of growth — a normal and healthy dormancy cycle that should be respected.
