Eleocharis Belem Dwarf

You will receive 1x Eleocharis Belem Dwarf tissue culture cup

Eleocharis Belem Dwarf is a compact, fine leaved hairgrass that forms dense, cushion like tufts. Its slender bright green leaves give a soft, natural lawn effect, making it a lovely choice for carpeting the foreground of nature style aquascapes and nano tanks.

This is a lab grown tissue culture cup, sourced from an Australian supplier, so it arrives clean and free from pests, snails and algae. The clump can be gently split into small portions and planted into the substrate with tweezers to spread across your foreground.
