Reproducing Echinodorus horemani



the only luck i have had with E. hormani has been in the emersed state.
getting it to grow emersed can be a slow slow road. i let the water
gradually eveporate adding small amoumts when the plants started to
stress.it seems to like it somewhat cool and shady. not like other
Echindorus which like it in  my greenhouse which reaches 100 f. After
flowering and seeding the plant dies back staying stunted for some time. i
use a rather poor peat bed,no chemicals,just fish tank water and no direct
light.this works for me.
