Pogostemon Erectus UNS Tissue Culture

Common name: Pogostemon Erectus

Pogostemon Erectus is a unique looking stem plant with pointy thin leaves growing from the center stem.  This is a great background plant that can really grab a viewers attention when grown in a thick bush.

Propagation can be done by cutting anywhere along the stem and replanting any trimmings.  Two new shoots will grow from right where the stem was cut.  

Tissue culture plants are grown in vitro from a state of the art laboratory specialized in propagating aquatic plants.  They provide the best option for those who want to ensure that absolutely zero unwanted pests are introduced into the aquarium.  

Remove tissue culture gel before planting.  Simply wash the gel away or soak the plant in water and squeeze the gel off with your fingers.
