    Picked and packed fresh, direct from the grower! A pair of aquatics well suited to algae beating • Anacharis, perhaps the most versatile submerged aquatic plant • Easy to keep • Widely tolerant of light and temperature range • Growing between 60°f to 90°f • Thriving in neutral to slightly alkaline waters • Very well suited to coldwater aquaria • Versatile as a pond plant Postage 2-3 lbs Priority calculated to your zipcode within the USA Anacharis (Egeria densa) The plants picked will be 9″ to 48″ strands, intact and rooted pieces will be found where possible, packed to make the most of a 6″x 7″ USPS Priority parcel box Effective as an algae buster, soaking up nutrients early in the year, this submerged aquatic plant variety has coped with severe winters under ice and 100°f Summers in the Carolina’s, the only thing that slows it down is a complete drought in a baking hot pond, even then it can recover from roots embedded in the mud… While it can live up to its name Anacharis, ‘anarchy’… what roots it makes are quite easy to yank out, unlike Elodea which has a tunneling habit that can riddle a waterlily pot, smothering favourite plants early in the year As an aquarium plant~ At a ph between 6ph and 8ph, lighting of two watts per gallon (5-7000k full spectrum) 60°f to 80°f should see it thrive well, pin sections to the aquarium sand or gravel to encourage roots to form to anchor the foliage or try it free floating. Anacharis is quite effective placed to the sides or back of the aquarium to form an attractive mass of foliage, trim excess growth to create new bold groups where fish can choose to hide, to lay eggs, to shelter baby fish. In warm aquariums, Anacharis may need some additional plant feed to keep it growing perky. As a pond plant Hardy to zone 5, Anacharis is a fast growing perennial native of warm and temperate parts of America, Anacharis masses up to form dense submerged foliage which can make lengths up to six feet long where it has space to spread. There is one surprising extra feature, when this humble plant puts up a host of delicate tiny white flowers just above the water surface, late Summer… Quite effective for creating cover for fish through the Winter months, for collecting spawn for transfer, for beating algae early in the year when it masses up toward the end of Summer, round up large foliage masses and gather them in the quiet dull corners of the pond so it does not shade or smother water lilies dormant submerse foliage through Winter Listed as an invasive plant in AL, CT, ME, NH, OR, SC, VT, WA., please do not consider starting this plant where it is considered invasive, passing birds and critters can spread sprigs to sensitive habitats which cannot cope with smothering by this fast growing species. Surplus plants make an excellent mulch around drought sensitive garden plants, effectively extracting surplus fertility from ponds that would otherwise stimulate algae such as blanketweed Water improving, algae busting Bladderwort! (Utricularia Gibba) Unusual! Insectivorous flowering floating aquatic plant… Water improving and effectively contributes to clearing severe green water conditions, algae busting Bladderwort is a tiny plant that forms mats of floating foliage, an insectivorous plant growing dense and fast enough to be considered a ‘fast foliage’ plant …. Extracting surplus fertility and shading water to effectively suppress green water conditions, left to its own devices Bladderwort will mass up forming attractive mats of algae beating foliage, easy to remove and dispose of as a mulch around drought prone plants when surpluses need clearing In its natural habit of trying to dominate its habitat, bladderwort is well able to beat competition such as green water by exploiting the insects which thrive on algae as well as the fertility which feeds the green water, the tiny little insect traps along its stem snare the tiny aquatic organisms add to its novelty, along with the characteristic tiny yellow flowers held about an inch or two above the water, quite a sight when it masses up in a quiet corner. How does bladderwort beat algae? Algae feeds tiny floating insects that extract minerals the algae feed on and eventually die, returning fertility back to the algae cycle… The bladderwort consumes the nutrients from the algae eating insects, locking it up in new bladderwort growth (easier for you to control)…. voila, bladderwort interrupts the nutrient to algae to aquatic bug cycle, you get to yank it out at the bladderwort stage :) How does the bladderwort work? Try a microscope, see the tiny vacuum chambers which ‘trap’ tiny organisms… When a tiny algae eating organism wiggles close to the trap hairs, the door snaps open in a fraction of a second, sucking the animal inside the bladder. Once trapped inside, the plant absorbs the animal’s nutrients using digestive juices… the cycle of nutrients is interrupted… algae feeds the insects, which feed the algae… the bladderwort interrupts the ‘fertile rich’ green water cycle… Further domination of the water is made by bladderwort forming mats in sunny areas which further reduces algae by shading water completely… You are bidding on sufficient quantity to spread over about a two foot square area, which can be fitted into a Priority box, start it off in any sunny area of water where it can mass up so it is easy to divide it to other areas. Try floating it over fertile potted marginal plants where it can really get going without too much interference from fish… Take care in Winter months it does not smother light from dormant water lilies, gently drag the rafts of Bladderwort away from lily positions to areas where it is easy to keep under control Click here to view other items that you can combine shipping with Please note, as with all other descriptions, these plants are grown in ponds with no fish present, in waters routinely treated to ensure no nasties such as water lily crown rot are likely to turn up unexpectedly… Don’t forget to check out the swglist plantlist, with links to photo’s and descriptions of aquatic plants at webshots waterlily photo’s at photobucket… by all means let me know what aquatic plants you would like to see listed! •Checkout koiphen.com, koishack.com for a friendly, well moderated pond and water gardening chinwag• Please note, these plants have been raised in pools with no fish present, if ever you have a doubt about putting new aquatic plants in your pond, put your new plants in a bucket of water with a spoonful or two of domestic bleach for several hours, then rinse with clean water. ask before you buy! contact adavisus@aol.com for further aquatic plant cultivation tips…..gathered from 30 years collecting aquatic plants and creating water gardens in temperate and hot climates Where possible, items are sent without excessive trimming other than to reduce shipping costs and to remove faded foliage • Paypal preferred, to adavisus@aol.com • Ask about other Varieties Available, over 100 Aquatic Plants may be listed! • Bare rooted plants with a good set of intact roots are supplied normally • No replacements or refunds are available for problems arising after parcels are dispatched, ask for delivery confirmation if you expect evidence of dispatch.
