- Tall Growing
- Easy Care
- Unique Leaf Texture
Crinum Calamistratum is a unique plant which grows from a bulb and produces very narrow, ruffled leaves that are dark green in color. It can grow quite tall which makes it a great plant to keep in the background of your aquarium, though it could serve very well as a centerpiece because of it's interesting appearance.
Crinum plants will do best in at least medium lighting and are extremely slow growing. Not a plant for frequent propagation, but a must have for any plant lover.
Customer Reviews
The plants arrived healthy and are growing in my tank!
I had never heard of nor seen this plant before but I was intrigued by its unusual look so I took a chance. It arrived in a well-packaged in such a way that it was kept moist in transit. It was easy to plant and after an expected tiny die-off of a couple of the tips, it has thrived and I've already noticed pretty good growth in just three weeks. I may actually get a second one if I can find a place to put it!
Crinum Calamistratum is a very unique plant. It took off in my tank and I did not have any melting. Excellent shipping and packaging! Will be ordering more plants!
I bought this plant because it was one on the list that is tough and can be kept with goldfish. Plants arrived quickly (2 days and I live in FL) and very well packaged. I have 2 with some rock wool shoved into an easy planter for a fuller look. lt gets root tabs as recommended as well as easy green once a week and in the first few days there was some melt back as expected, but it is doing beautifully at the 2 week mark and I see new root growth. 1st pic is zoomed out and on the day my plants arrived. 2nd pic is zoomed in with the fish behind it and was taken today (2 weeks since arrival and after melt back). It looks like it's doing great! I can't wait until it gets really tall.
Super speedy shipping! Great product! Was really amazed by the quality of the plant as it had to sit at the post office for a few days before I could pick it up.
