from: £4.29 · scroll down to shop

Shinnersia rivularis or Mexican Oak Leaf is a beautiful and very fast growing swamp plant. However, it thrive well under water too, and it is therefore well suited for aquaria as well as paludaria. The leaves are brightly green and very variable though often lanceolate in appearance. It requires high light to produce maximum growth rates but more moderate light is sufficient in most cases. The substrate does not seem to be very important and even free floating shoots continues to grow and soon adventitious shoot are formed, too. When grown as a swamp plant Shinnersia rivularis can grow up to 1 m tall. In addition, the plant can be used in garden ponds during summertime.
