I cannot get over how cute these things are. I'm doing a mini experiment with growing aquatic plants emersed in sphagnum. Had a lot of success with aquasoil, wanted to see how they did in sphagnum. The containers are pudding jars [2 of 3 that i ate last night :D] with polyethylene lids, i find them soo adorable. Plants are Anubias barteri var. nana 'Pinto' [Yoghurt] and Bucephalandra 'Brownie Ghost' [Soufflé]. Should be quite easy to find in a good local aquascaping store. Not the cheapest tho #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PropagationStation #PlantTherapy #GrowLights #Terrarium #Terrariumtribe #AquaticPlants #RarePlants #TheThread
