Echinodorus Oriental Sword

Description

Oriental Sword plants (like other sword plants) are great for filling out a space and throwing off some paddle-shaped leaves that break up your other greenery! The key to keeping swords is going to come down to lighting (moderate to high light is recommended) along with proper planting. Sword plants are susceptible to rotting and dying if the crown of the plant is buried. The crown is the base of the plant where the leaves out grow from, so be sure to bury only roots with this plant! Give them a little fertilizer for good measure and let these beauties take off!
