redracer77 Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 I'm thinking about a taller sword plant for the corner of my tank, something that will grow to 50 - 60cm, I have a red special but seems to grow quite flat. would like something with rounder leaves rather than narrow. Any suggestions? Anyone have any for sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Marble queen is a varigated form of cordifolius. Uraguayensis has narrow leaves like vallisneria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 There are a number of plants sold as osiris which are somerthing else but the true osiris gets quite large with round leaves. I had one pushing the lids off a 500mm high tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redracer77 Posted February 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Thanks, I was thinking osiris or ozelot, will the ozelot get tall enough? anyone have one that has grown that tall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Ozelot is a hybrid with leopard and is medium sized at best. Roundish leaves and a nice plant though. E. Argentinensis is large ---up to 1200mm but like most similar plants you are likely to only see stalks under the water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
