Please note that we do not necessarily stock all varieties of 1-2-Grow! and those that we do aren't necessary ordered in large quantity (more than 3/week) due to individual popularity and the limited shelf life of the tissue culture cups. If you need large quantities or notice that a variety you are interested in has not been in stock for more than 2 weeks, please feel free to contact us via email or phone and we will be happy to special order your desired quantities/varieties.

Staurogyne repens is a fresh green, compact and hardy plant for the foreground of the aquarium and it was found in River Rio Cristalino in the southern Amazonas. Its nearest relative in the aquaristic is Hygrophila but Staurogyne is different with its marked compact, low and bushy stature (5-10 cm) and small green leaves (each stem is 3.4 cm wide).
When planting in the aquarium, the longest upright shoots should be cut off and new, horizontally creeping shoots will soon form from the plant basis and gradually colonize the gravel.
At low light, the growth will be more upright and much less side shoots will be formed.
