E Tenellus vs E quadricostatus
Hi Lori
You wouldn't happen to be Wade's wife would you? If so tell him Alfred
said Aloha!
There are 2 forms of E Tenellus to start with.
One had a solid green leave that is wider at the tip then the base. If you
are thinking of a front lawn, this is the one to get. It will grow to max
8 cm. but needs lot of light at least 3-1 for decent growth.
The other is lighter green in color and is widest in the bottom half of
the leave, then it tapers into a fine point. Careful with this one. My
front lawn of this grew to over 12 inches making it an effective
curtain! It will grow in a light ratio of less then 2-1 and fast too!
E quad, can't help you there. I don't know it.
Alfred
