Re: [APD] Cryptocoryne Balansae

["S. Hieber" <shieber at yahoo_com>]

Under good fetilization, especially with a rich substrate, the leaves can get quite long. This plant likes to send out lots runners 5 or 10 or more inches away from the parent plant, so it can be a challenge taming this one. It doesn't spread like a lawn; it spreads more like a rumor. It's a love crypt, though.

Check out Tropica's write-up on it:

Has anyone had much experience growing Cryptocoryne Balansae?
Did you have good growth rates?
How long did the leaves get?
Did you get many daughter plants?
Did you feed the roots?
