Homeland: South America Tracks in the Amazon Basin Area

The "great Amazonian" echinodorus deserves its name due to the fact that its xiphoid leaves can reach heights up to 40 cm, and the width of a single leaf can be 8 cm. Therefore, this plant looks particularly good as a tapeworm in spacious tanks. This species forms on the flower shoots under water young plant. In nutrient soil (clay additive), this echinodorus can turn into a giant.
