Grown in-vitro in a sterile lab, this Tissue Culture cup of Rotala Wallichii arrives free of pests, algae, and snails. Thin, fragile leaves create luscious forests of green and red when grown in large clusters — high lighting, CO2, and fertilization dosing turn the leaves a mix of vibrant pink, red, orange, and yellow hues.

Remove tissue culture gel before planting by rinsing or squeezing off under water. |
Care & Planting: Rinse tissue culture gel off before planting into substrate. Handle gently — leaves are fragile.
A note on appearance: Many stem plants, including this one, are harvested in their above-water (emersed) form, and the photo may not reflect how it looks once fully adjusted to life underwater. Leaf shape and coloration commonly shift as the plant transitions to submersed growth — don't be surprised if new growth looks different from what arrived in your order. Give it a few weeks to acclimate before judging its final look.
