Geoff, thanks for the fast respond, but I'll like to debate that cos my this plant of mine does not have petiolate like the cryto you mention!
Correct me if I am wrong
Confused

OK, seems like most polls are Crypto Balansae.
Another 4 stalks to go. Any takers?
Mike, those are very nice plants and judging from the 3rd pic, I'll have to go along with Geoffrey, that it's likely a C. balansae.
Tempted as I am to ask if you have any left, it's best I leave it to others as balansae is one plant I can't keep alive in an aquarium. Those I'm growing emersed are doing fine though.
I'm back & keeping 'em fingers wet,

Hi all, seems that my plant here is not the C. Balansae afterall, I am quite sure it is the C. Retrospiralis.
See pic I found on the net
http://www.aquaria.ru/news/2001-01-31.shtml?2
Th pic shows the rhizome, leaf width and the ugly roots, it totally resemble what I have in my tank!
Thanks to Hobbit6003 from Arofanatic for his knowledge.
Mike
All given out.
