Aponogeton ulvaceus is one of the most beautiful species of bulbs of the Aponogeton family and is native to Madagascar.
The leaves are delicate, light green and transparent, with grooved margin. A single root can produce more than 40 leaves, 30-60 cm long. This means that the plant is ideal as a solitary plant in large aquariums (the plant becomes wide up to 50 cm). It is relatively tolerant and prosperous both in fresh water and hard water, especially if CO2 is added.
There are many varieties of Aponogeton ulvaceus, some of which require a period of sleep, where the root does not produce leaves.
