Description

Native to New Zealand, Lilaeopsis Novae-Zelandiae is a slow-growing, grass-like carpeting plant ideal for natural-style aquascapes. With its fine, upright green blades, it creates a soft meadow-like foreground, perfect for adding texture and realism to riverbank and open-layout designs.

Key Features:

  • Native New Zealand carpeting species
  • Fine, bright green grass-like blades
  • Ideal for nano tanks and natural aquascapes
  • Low-growing and slow-spreading
  • Excellent for foreground or midground use

Care Instructions:

  • Lighting: Requires medium to high light to grow compact and healthy.
  • Substrate: Performs best in nutrient-rich substrate; root tabs can support growth in inert gravel or sand.
  • CO₂: Recommended for better spread and vitality, though not essential.
  • Trimming: Trim full leaf blades at the base—partial cuts will cause the remainder to rot.
  • Water Parameters: Prefers 18–26°C, pH 6.5–7.5, and moderate flow conditions.

Once established it looks fantastic, just a little time consuming to plant initially.
