Cryptocoryne's exotic cousin — textured and striking. Lagenandra Thwaitesii TC CUP is a robust aroid closely related to Cryptocoryne, prized for its thick, textured leaves with unique surface patterns.
Plant in nutrient-rich substrate. Adapts to low light but colors improve with moderate light. Stable water parameters help prevent melt.
Tissue culture — pest-free, algae-free, ready to plant.
🌱 First 30 days: Expect some leaf melt in the first 1–2 weeks — this is normal. New submersed leaves appear within 3–4 weeks.
✂️ Propagation: Produces side shoots from rhizome. Separate when established. Moderate.
