Description

Cryptocoryne undulatus 'Kasselman' is a classic and well-regarded variant of the green undulatus Cryptocoryne, named after the aquatic plant specialist Christel Kasselmann. It produces wavy, textured medium green leaves with a slightly more pronounced surface texture than the standard green form — a reliable and attractive midground Crypt that improves with age.

Low light, no CO2, planted in substrate. Root tabs support good establishment. Like all Crypts, temporary leaf melt can follow being moved — leave the rhizome in the substrate and it will regrow. Once established it spreads reliably via runners.

Plant roots in the substrate without burying the crown. Midground positioning in most aquariums.

Incredible little plant, I've always avoided crypts in the past, worrying about melt etc, but these have been brilliant in my low light non-CO2 tank. Very little melt, lots of new growth appearing from the substrate. I did use a couple of root tabs beneath these to assist with the roots taking hold, and they all appear to be flourishing! I was able to get 5-6 individual plants from each pot.

Typically 15–25cm — midground positioning in most aquariums.
