Bolbitis heudelotii (African Water Fern)

Description

Bolbitis comes from West Africa, a fern with very beautiful transparent green leaves, 15-40 cm tall and wide. When planting do not cover the rhizome because it will rot, and it is best to plant Bolbitis heudelotii on a root or stone. Keep the plant in position with fishing line until it has gained a hold. Easy to propagate by splitting the horizontal rhizome. Growth and leaf size can be increased considerably by supplying CO2, and is only optimal in soft, slightly acidic water.

Sold in as bunch in mesh pots.
