Aponogeton Ulvaceus is a very large aquatic bulb plant with bright green, slightly translucent leaves that grow in a twisted, curly manner from a sturdy stem. It is considered easy to keep and can withstand a wide range of water parameters — a great choice for larger planted aquariums given its size at maturity.
