Bunch Water Wisteria (Hygrophila Difformis)

Available in different options:

• Bunch (4-6 stems)
• Potted (rooted in rockwool)

An easy green beauty, 'Hygrophila difformis' gets tall, so be sure to add it towards the back of your aquarium! Responds well to trimming and replanting to keep it full and bushy.

Bunch format: 4-6 collected stems, may be branched or rooted

Potted format: Fully rooted and established, 4-6" tall

Bettas love to rest on the broad leaves up towards the surface. If you don't prune them, they'll grow right out of the water! You'll notice the leaf shape and texture will change too. Immersed grown (outside the water) leaves will be thicker, coarser, and less frilly and lacy. Underwater leaves change shape to thin lacy leaves. Wisteria is a truly versatile plant.

I personally grow these both ways, so your bunches may have harvested stems that have both emergent and submerged leaves, plus usually some roots too!

Growing requirements:

• 65-80 Degrees Fahrenheit
• Ph 6-8
• Low-medium light intensity
• Grows quickly
• Gets leggier with lower light, bronze tips with higher light
• Co2 not necessary, but recommended for best color

As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there’s always a chance of harmless hitchhikers like snails or dwarf shrimp tagging along with your plants!

I personally keep several beneficial snail species in my tanks, including Colorful Ramshorns, Bronze Bladder and Pond Snails, Mini Rams, and Malaysian Trumpet Snails. These snails stay relatively small, help clean the aquarium, and do not eat healthy plants or cause harm. However, if you’d rather avoid any hitchhikers, I highly recommend checking out our blog on how to safely disinfect aquarium plants before adding them to your tank:

All plants are freshly snipped or harvested and packed right before shipment. I take great care in preparing every order and use methods that have consistently produced the best results over many years in the hobby. A lot of love goes into every package, so please don’t leave your plants sitting in a hot mailbox for too long 🙏

Thank you for looking, aqua friends! 💚
