Sparkle Sword

About Sparkle Sword

Sparkle Sword is a rosette sword plant with broad green leaves that makes a simple focal point. Sword plants are heavy root feeders, so they do best with root tabs or a rich substrate. Remove older outer leaves at the base as new ones emerge from the centre.

Most aquarium plants are grown above water at the nursery, so some leaves may melt in the first weeks while new submerged growth appears. Plant into a nutrient-rich substrate or add root tabs, and keep the temperature between 22 and 28°C.
