Care Tips: Pogostemon Erectus is a striking stem plant known for its bright green, pine-needle-like foliage and upright, bushy growth. It is supplied in a sterile tissue culture cup, ensuring it's free from algae, pests, and snails—ideal for delicate aquascapes. This plant thrives in medium to high light, where it develops a dense, vertical growth habit that adds a strong architectural element to planted tanks. CO₂ supplementation and regular fertilization are recommended to achieve optimal color and growth speed. Trim regularly to encourage bushier growth and prevent lower leaf loss. Pogostemon Erectus is a beautiful choice for Dutch-style aquascapes or as a vivid contrast plant among broader-leaved species. Ensure stable water conditions and avoid shading it with larger plants to maintain its upright, vibrant form.
