    Went over to petmart coz they finally open today for busniess ... got my stuff as well as walk walk a abit so thought of sharing the new stuff the pet shops in serangoon is offering

    Saw the Aponogeton ulvaccus in petmart, for those who are interested can pop by to check it out.

    Highlight of this msg is that I saw the Cyperus Alterniflius in Heisenberg which is a pretty rare plant to be sold in LFS as it requires water of low temp ... in fact, this is the first time I saw it in LFS, but I did not bother to ask for the price as I just cant bring myself to talk to the taiwanese lady boss.

    Hi AirStern, Cyperus alternifolius is a terrestrial plant(not fully aquatic) that grow on river banks. I have a pot myself and its doing well as a houseplant. I'm not sure it can survive totally submerged in water. If u can let the leaves emersed, it will be good for the plant.
