    Hi all the experts here,

    Would appreciate it very much if you could help to ID these plants for me.

    All the plants here are attached to driftwood.

    Many thanks.

    The plant in the last pic is semi aquatics and won't survive long, it's known as mondo grass. The plant in the second pic is bolbitis heteroclita and it prefers to be grown emersed and will struggle submerged.

    Does it grow on driftwood without substrate?
