    It is actually not that nice... It gets messy easily because of their tiny roots. I'm considering removing them completely.

    How are these plants growing, I've seen a few types, some pointed leaves, some similar to HC. Some seller claims the China ones don't last Long because they aren't aquatic plants, but there are some sold from Myanmar that is known to last more than just a few months.

    Re: easy carpet plant seeds

    yes... they will grow everywhere... as they start to germinate , there will be a layer of gel that stick to the surface..
    they even grow on wood...but whether can last or not is another question.

    Re: easy carpet plant seeds

    They even grow on bare glass... Which is why I decided to remove them cuz they grow everywhere and their short roots make them easily uprooted and messes up the entire fish tank

    Re: easy carpet plant seeds

    Base on the China Url link shared by one of the brother earlier, the Chinese name of this plant is 薛荔 and the scientific name is Ficus pumila which is an evergreen vine actually. Any botanist here can verify this?

    Are the seeds from east ocean same as China ones? Will they get up rooted easily ?

    Re: easy carpet plant seeds

    I think initial stage the seeds will form a layer of gel for it to cling to anything before it started rooting.
    The root last for weeks to a month I think that is when the floating starts if the roots is not well establish enough.

    I am going to experiment with dry start the seeds, then when they grow, I'll cover another layer of soil for them to anchor properly before adding water .
