Terrific customer service and delivery was super fast. Managed to get a lot of bulbs from the cup. Now I am just waiting patiently for them to grow! Really happy!

Unusual, very decorative plants well suited to tall low-light & low maintenance tanks. I'm delighted with the plantlet health.
I also purchased a few cryptocorynes & the difference between these & those from another supplier was night and day. Good roots, strong corms & easy to rinse off the gel. I'm now patiently waiting for more stock from Oriental Aquariums to arrive.
