Sagittaria Pusillus - emersed
Sagittaria is a very popular foreground plant, chosen by both beginners and more advanced aquarists. Sagittaria can grow under a variety of conditions. It will grow shorter under good light and limited nutrient supply. With lower light and better nutrient supply it might develop quite long leaves up to 30-50 cm. Trimming older and higher leaves will promote dense and compact growth. If the plant will not have enough nutrient the leaves will become yellow and sickly. It would need to be treated with iron and other nutrients.

Worms, snails & pets free. The picture is only illustrative, and the real plant may vary in colour and size, especially in the winter, because the plants grow more slowly, although we try to provide the largest sometimes it is independent of us. The colour depends on the fertilizers in which they are served. Plants will take their natural look in the aquarium. You will receive plants looking similar like on the photo (without pot, cup).
The size of the plant shows how big it can grow in the aquarium. That gives information to the buyers where to position plant in the aquarium. Plants which you will receives come from greenhouses or laboratory(in vitro) and some of them might be smaller or bigger than the final sizes shown on the listing. Don't be surprised that sometimes plants might not have roots or roots will be minimal. After planting in the aquarium, the plant will grow new roots within a few days.
