Sword Vesuvius Pot (Echinodorus Angustifolia 'Vesuvius')

I got two healthy plants in my pot. The leaves were fairly straight when I pulled them out of their packaging, which was disappointing, but after 5 days, the leaves are really twisting into little spirals, yay!

Amazing plant arrived. In just a short time new leaves and runner shoot. About a month in tank and growing so wonderful. My favorite!!

I am super pleased with my order! All the plants were great and are growing exceptionally fast! That vesuvias is Awesome!! The new leaf growth, two came up together in a spiral, it is the coolest looking thing. I'm super pleased

Definitely a strong and beautiful plant. Planted it and it already has multiple runners off of it. Definitely a must have for a planted tank. Highly recommend, make sure to quarantine them with some clown loaches as they might have snails.

Annoyed originally... Figured there would be multiple plants in one pot. There was only one. Pleasantly surprised this thing threw off runners within the first two weeks and I have already started 6 new plants from the main one after only a month. Beautiful plant! Very nice size pot despite my selfishness in wanting more then one plant in the pot!

The plants I received were quite small, but are already sending out a couple of runners and sprouting new leaves. I suspect it will not take long for this plant to grow and fill a corner and side of my tank as I want it too. The leaves were too short to be curly as in the photos, but the new leaves have the disticnt curl.

Received one of these about 2 weeks ago with my third order from this great operation. Although AP.com apologize for the "price due to rarity", it's in line with, say, most Anubias species. I got a tight bunch of leaves about 4" tall with a bunch of roots. Within days it sent out a runner, which is now hard to diagram in text - it's about 3" long to the next node, and sent out another "forward" and two more at 90 degrees. And another forward. And one of the sideways ones is trying to colonize my Crypt. balansae zone. It is growing new leaves that are 6-8" tall. I suspect that in a year it will have taken over my entire tank. 75 g with 6x28w t5 lighting, AP.com fertilizer pellets, no "real" co2 but I've been using co2booster lately. Executive summary: a wonderful healthy plant that seems to want to propagate insanely just as advertised. June 28 update: limited to 1000 ch. 12" leaves check. Not 'runners' but side stalks like other swords.

I just recieved this plant potted, it was wrapped very well and the plant had a good root system, the foliage was about 4 inches tall and bright green. This plant is in a high light tank w/o CO2 and only gets ferts once a week, I will let you know if any problems arise. So far this plant is holding it's own and still bright green in a tight twist of floiage, right now a Kuhli Loach has intertwined itself with the plant, although it looks happy it appears to be a slow grower and I may try root tabs if no growth is recorded but it has only been a week.

arrived in excellent condition about 10" tall. great root system. adds great variety to your tank.
