FS: Echinodorus Angustifolia 'Vesuvious'

jrman83 · 03-26-2011, 10:26 AM

I have 12 vesuvious - SOLD OUT Very easy plant. Doesn't require a lot of light and will grow in regular gravel. Considered a rare plant by quite a few sites out there and they charge you for it.

$2 each + $5 shipping

Can include a little free Java Moss if interested, but will not ship moss by itself.

Will only ship Mon-Wed to make sure it is not stuck somewhere during the weekend.

PM me if interested.

Corkscrew sword? those are nice, I got a dozen but this is ONE AWESOME PLANT people. and a great price too. I paid 3x as much for each plant when I got them, They are rare but becoming more accepted as they are a runner sword and not a typical sword, it has really fine root system and needs light gravel that it can easily break through.

Ben, if they dont sell within two weeks hit me up, Ill have the 75 up by then.

This will help you.

Plant Details

good luck, and keep in touch ill be game in two fridays.

HA, I'm sorry JR i got you mixed up with James who is also in the area with plants for sale.

majerah1 · 03-31-2011, 11:34 AM

Very pretty plant.Is this grown emersed or submerged?How big do they get?I am interested in a few.

WhiteGloveAquatics · 03-31-2011, 11:42 AM

They are grown submerged and stay submerged, its a true aquatic plant, they get from 10-15" tall in most cases.
Didnt mean to Hijack but I got a few and we are growing our own because they are harder to get right now.

tinman · 04-02-2011, 07:42 PM

are they fast growing or slow growing plants ??

also do you have any kinda Java fern or anykinda fern for that matter

a small one would do.

phys · 04-03-2011, 06:06 AM

I think i may have one of those.. lol i bought it for my 2.5 gallon because it was small and looked cool. It hasnt grown much as i dont have a ton of lighting on it.

They don't grow extremely fast, but that will depend on amount of lighting. I would imagne under low lighting they grow fairly slow.

I also have a couple of Java Ferns.

So excited my new plants should hopefully be arriving today!!

mec102778 · 04-07-2011, 12:13 PM

Ok, plants arrived but I think I missed something.. Stupid forum was down for me yesterday/lastnight so I couldn't confirm.

mec102778 · 04-07-2011, 05:34 PM

Just a bump to keep this on top. If you thought about it and haven't order up some plants from Ben. Do so. Shipped on time arrived in good condition (even though I missed a few and they sat out for over 24 hours). Very excited to get the Vesuvious planted!

mec102778 · 04-19-2011, 10:33 AM

Ben, just thought I would say thank you. The Vesuvious is pulgging along, I have one plant that has taken off and the rest while not dead are sllloooowww. Can't wait for them all to take off it's such a cool looking plant.

Also the Wisteria is almost ready for trimming and replanting, and the moss as expected is looking just fine!

jrman83 · 04-19-2011, 02:33 PM

No problem. Glad they are doing well for you. Ready for a sword?

mec102778 · 04-19-2011, 03:33 PM

Oh yeah, I think a sword would go nicely in my predator tank. I just put some guppy fry in there and very little coverage they had no chance.

mec102778 · 04-24-2011, 07:51 PM

Wisteria has reached the top of my 10G, yup its a weed for sure. Pic is of the 3 clippings at the top of the water.

Can't get a good pic of the Vesuvious.

jrman83 · 04-24-2011, 08:27 PM

Ahhh....good! Once you get to the point of clipping, it tends to start to branch out laterally (after you've clipped). I get more shoots that run the bottom than any other kind of new growth. I just threw away about 6-7 times as much as I gave you yesterday.

mec102778 · 04-24-2011, 09:13 PM

Wow, it so easy to keep I would see doing an all wisteria tank. Thanks again for the awesome plan!
