Cheeky Request

[poohbear1]

I keep going to lfs for plants for my tank its a 190litre corner tank.
I want some plants that dont need any looking after apart from ocassional cutting back.
Does anyone have any ideas of plants as so far I only have one live plant in my tank cause my lfs has ones that always die on me.
No one in the shop seems to know anything about plants.
There used to be a goodish shop in town but its went out of business cause of the tram preperation.
Does anyone have any ideas what plants I can use and if anyone has an excess of suitable plants they dont want I would be willing to take them
Thanks

I've found

vallis, anubias, java fern, and amazon swords (if you don't have a royal plec! - mine demolished them in one night!)

all grow pretty well, on their own, without too much attention, light, CO2 etc.

vallis by far!! I brought 3 little bunchs from my lfs,And they grew about 25inc long, welll the went to the surface of a vision 180 whcih is just under 2ft high and across water surface.

only ever had 1 amazon sword which ended up going in the bin lol.

Most of the rooted plants don't need that much upkeep as far as I've noticed, Just some root tabs every now and then and a little thinning out if they start getting to bushy or crowded.
