Reviews
Like everything else from Buce
"Like everything else from Buce it arrived looking very healthy. I've planted it in a dirted tank and seen no die off or melting. I'd recomend it!"
My tank doesn't like tc plants
"didn't survive transition, but not the first time for me with tc plants, maybe too much going on in the tank for them to acclimate . Delivery was good and they looked well upon arrival."
Super Healthy Plant
"Within 5 days, you could see growth SUPER happy with this plant/purchase. !!"
Only 2 separate plants in one tissue culture.
"I've ordered multiple cups of these hoping that I can jump start a nice carpet in my 20 gallon long, but at best, there are only 2 separate plants (rhizomes/root balls) in each cup. I wished there were more. But the plants themselves are extremely healthy and always tend to have runners already growing."
Plant in great condition! Easy to propagate and plant
"Super impressed with the quality and condition of the helanthium bolivianum. Will order again!"
Helanthium Bolivianum AFT
"Helanthium Bolivian AFT is a great looking plant! Upon arrival, the blank was healthy and in nutrient jelly. I purchased two orders and both were about as big as the palm of my hand! The only complication is planting I’m light weight substrates. The plants easily float if not anchored to the substrate. All in all, the plant is beautiful, a good size and although planting can be frustrating, it gives a perfect look to any planted tank."
Beautiful plant
"The plant looks great! Within a week, a new plant was growing off of a runner."
Great plant
"Awesome plant and healthy when arrived. Leaves where a little bent but it will fix itself. I love it"
Came healthy
"The plants in the culture cup were healthy and have only minimal melt after a week in the tank. The cup contained one large clump and one smaller, perfect for what I needed."
Good tissue culture
"Came in well the gel was still moist they grew out nice kind of like a broad short leaf sagittaria"
