Care & Planting: Remove from the pot and rinse the roots before planting into substrate; bury the root ball but keep the crown exposed. This plant is farm-grown emersed — expect the original leaves to melt and be replaced by new underwater-adapted leaves over the first few weeks after planting. This is normal and not a sign of a sick or dying plant.
