Lotus
Came in perfectly with roots and bulb in great shape. I lost one leaf off of it in the first 24 hours, but that's all. It is growing great.

The T-Rex of plants!
This plant is crazy. If it is a dwarf version then I would hate to see the size of the non-dwarf version. I received this plant as a replacement for another which was out of stock. It came with maybe 3 little leaves growing out of the 3/4 inch bulb. I put the bulb in the tank and covered maybe 1/8 of an inch of the bulb. I dose with Flourish Excel every second day and use NO CO2. My substrate is layered with a fertilizing powder on the glass then Fluval Plant and Shrimp Stratum on top. After a week the first plant split into two plants and started shooting up the surface leaves. Now after a month, this bulb has turned into the T-Rex of plants. Leaves are 6-8 inches across and just keep on sprouting. I am trimming these plants back every week so the other plant species can enjoy some light too. This is an amazing plant to watch grow as it is a hybrid, growing both submersed and emersed simultaneously.

Nymphaea Rubra
A small piece with several very little leaves. But very healthy. Now it has more leaves and bigger bigger every day. Thank you so much.

dwarf lily
I put it in the center of the 110 gallon tank with a lot of light and in the time I've had it, it has like eight new leaves. I am very happy with it and hope it really grows out. Have used one root tab to help it.

Dwarf Lily
I bought a few of these in the same order and they all came already growing and healthy. These grow pretty quick but the leaves stay small and manageable unlike pond lilies. The leaves have more solid color than the tiger lily but I feel like there more color variations in the leaves for these. I have one in each of my tanks and they’re doing great (and look great) in all 3.

Very pretty plant
Came as a bulb with a few leaves. All the leaves melted once introduced to my tank. New leaves grew quickly from the bulb. Adding iron turned the leaves redder. I wasn't sure on how to plant the bulb, but i left it semi submerged from the substrate and it seems to be doing well this way. Leaves seem to melt easily to any new changes.

Still waiting on my replacement...
I bought one of these plants back in March and was shipped a bulb that had no growth on it and smelled slightly rotten. I was assured the plant would grow and gave it a full month. Nothing. I was supposed to have a replacement shipped last month and still never received it. When emailing them I'm simply told to call despite having all necessary information within the email. When I do call, whoever I'm supposed to talk to is conveniently out at the time. My experience with this company has been great until now.
