Crypt Undulata is a commonly available Cryptocoryne that has been in the aquatic plant trade for years. It originates from the streams and rivers of Sri Lanka, where it can be found growing emersed or submerged depending on the season and location. Leaf color ranges from bright green to bronze-red depending on lighting and growing conditions.

Other Thrives in nutrient-rich substrate with good lighting and CO2, but tolerant of a range of conditions.

Care & Planting: Remove from the pot and root wool before planting into quality substrate. Crypts dislike being moved once established — pick a spot and leave it. To propagate, cut off new plantlets growing from the mother rhizome.

A note on "crypt melt": Cryptocoryne are well known for shedding their leaves after being moved, replanted, or exposed to a sudden change in water parameters. This is normal — new, better-adapted leaves typically regrow within a few weeks once the plant settles in. Don't panic if it happens; just maintain stable conditions and give it time to recover.
