Description
This Sagittaria species is a fast-growing plant that can quickly fill a great amount of space in the aquarium!
The Narrowleaf Sagittaria (Sagittaria subulata), also known as Dwarf Arrowhead, is a versatile and hardy aquatic plant that can be used as a foreground, midground, or even background plant depending on tank conditions. It features thin, grass-like leaves that sway gently in the water, creating a natural, flowing effect. Under the right conditions, this plant may even send up tall, flowering shoots above the water’s surface, adding a unique aesthetic to aquascapes.
Grown in sterile tissue culture, this plant is 100% pest-free, disease-free, and algae-free, ensuring a healthy and clean start for your aquarium. Unlike traditionally grown plants, tissue culture specimens arrive with strong, young growth, ready to establish in your tank.
