Aponogeton Longiplumulosus

Aponogeton Longiplumulosus Aponogeton Longiplumulosus is a really cool aquarium plant if you're looking for something with a little more movement and texture. Its long, narrow leaves have heavily ruffled edges that create an almost wavy look as they move with the water. This plant can get pretty large once established, making it a great choice for the midground or background of larger planted aquariums. The dark green leaves add a ton of texture without needing super high lighting. Like other Aponogetons, this plant grows from a bulb and may occasionally go through a resting period where growth slows down or some leaves die back. Don't panic! Give the bulb some time and it can begin putting out new growth again.
