Micro Sagittaria - Sagittaria Lileopterus

[Themuleous]

Its a bit of a long shot given its so late on a Friday, but wondering if anyone has any tips on planting micro sagittaria? My order arrived from greenline today and its arrives as something of a mat, not like the others which are individual plants. It seems that the plants are part of chains, should I cut this up and plant each individual plat as I would do with the other sagittaria species or try and plant the whole mat as one?

Thanks people

Yeah it's best to break it up into individual plants or little clumps and space them about a inch apart, they will soon start producing more runners.

Excellent, thanks Steven another evening of being arm deep in water ahead then, what fun!

Make sure you wash your armpits free of any deoderant!

Good luck with it Sam. It's a great plant but a notorious algae magnet. We all know how you love algae!
