About This Plant

Grass-like carnivorous carpet for advanced aquascapes

Utricularia graminifolia forms a bright green, grass-like mat that looks like a miniature lawn. This carnivorous bladderwort is considered demanding — it benefits greatly from high light, CO2 injection, and stable conditions to carpet evenly. Plant in small portions across the substrate and avoid disturbing once established.

Care Instructions

Thrives with high light and CO2 injection. Plant in small portions across the substrate for even carpeting. Avoid disturbing once established — roots are delicate.

What's Included

Each plant ships in a sealed 120 mL sterile culture vessel (60 mm base). Laboratory-grown in vitro under controlled conditions — pest-free, algae-free, and ready to plant.

How to Prepare

Tissue culture plants arrive in a nutrient gel or liquid medium. Rinse this off completely before planting — leftover media can fuel algae growth in your tank.

  1. Remove the plant from the cup and gently pull apart into small portions.
  2. Rinse thoroughly under cool running tap water to wash away all gel or liquid media.
  3. For stubborn gel, soak the portions in a bowl of clean water for a few minutes, then rinse again.
  4. Plant the portions directly into your substrate — space them out to encourage even spread and growth.
