Bacopa Caroliniana

Bacopa caroliniana is a classic, easy stem plant that’s perfect for both beginners and experienced aquascapers. It features thick, oval leaves on upright stems and develops a slight copper or pink tint under strong light.

Key Features

• Very adaptable: Grows in low to medium light; colours up better in high light.
• Thick, sturdy stems: Easier to plant than fine-leaf species.
• Tissue culture grown: Snail-, algae-, and pesticide-free — safe for shrimp.
• Great for Dutch/Nature layouts: Adds vertical structure and fresh green colour.
• Easy propagation: Simply cut the tops and replant.

Planting Tips

• Rinse off the culture gel and divide the cup into several small portions.
• Plant stems individually a few centimetres apart to let light reach the lower leaves.
• Trim regularly to encourage bushier, fuller groups.
• Best results in nutrient-rich substrate with stable water parameters.
