Chng Tng plant now available from Tropica

See the new listing at: http://www.tropica.com/productcard.asp?id=049B

The species offered by Tropica is Utricularia graminifolia, but there are in fact several other Utricularia species (the genus totals more than 200 species) which look similar and are told apart mainly by differences in their flowers.

Interesting, never knew there were insect eating aquatic plants.

Wonder how much per pot or mesh...

**crandf** · 11th May 2006, 17:36

Fu Wo had it last month, and its actually quite affordable. I haven't gotten around to removing the mesh it came in, and its growing rather funny now, imagine chendol that's erect

Gorgeous looking plants, would like to see how it's like planted on a massive lawn. Read that they are slow growing plants, is it true?

**shihyong** · 11th Jun 2006, 12:14

Jeff,
Your immersed form is very nice. Any sucess in submerse?

**ragn4rok** · 11th Jun 2006, 12:29

I just bought it a few hours ago. They were sold in emmersed form.

Already sold out (15 pots) here in Indonesia in just one day.

nice looking plant. Surely makes a nicr foreground plant. Frankly it look abit delicious too

maybe it's due to it's bright greeny colour

It is the same as the foreground plant that the Marine Parade Sam's used to have in their display tank? If so, they look very nice as a foreground plant...

And they look so 'Cheng Do' when emmersed!...
