Hi All,

Been away from the forum for a while. Some updates.. 🙂
Anubias Nana, Anubias Afzeli, hair grass, **some strange, tiny plant** and ferns:



Erio needs re-housing!


Hemigraphis pink, Echinodorous, crypts and Hemigraphis repanda growing in a garden pot:

Did some re-housing of Anubias and Erios into this one.



It'll grow with other plants in the garden 😀

PS: excuse the Misc. stuff lying around the container.
Cheers,

Karthik

Hi all,

**some strange, tiny plant**

Do you mean the <"sporeling ferns">? They are the sporophyte (2n) generation growing from a prothallus (n), following fertilization of the archegonia (by motile spores from the antheridia).

Anubias are staying small after regular pruning to the mother plant. the previous 4-5 leaves are small, hence I am assuming it will stay that way. This was originally an Anubias Nana.



I have 8-10 plants of this size. 🙂

Great thread 🙂 most plants I have grown emersed are smaller/ have smaller leaves than their submersed counterparts, don't be suprised if they revert once back under water.

Hi all,

Pogostemon Helferi growing vertically

Looks like it is probably a flowering shoot. Mick.Dk will know more, but it maybe a plant that "wants" to flower straight away when you grow it emersed.

There are flowers on page 4. in this thread (on another forum). <"Flowers of aquatic plants">.
