Plant Sizes

Just wanted to give you a heads up that the image of the plant you'll be receiving is just an example of what you can expect. Each plant is unique and may vary in size and shape, so it won't be an exact match to the photo. If we provide a size guide, keep in mind that it's just an estimate and that plants can vary in size depending on the time of year.

Our Delivery Promise to you

If you choose Express Delivery, we will replace any plants that are damaged due to delays. Express Delivery is a fast, trackable, and reliable option with a one hour delivery window. It also ensures that the plants will arrive in the same condition as when they left our facility. If you choose a different postage option, such as Tracked 24 or Tracked 48, you will not be covered for any damages due to delays and will assume the risk yourself if the plants do not arrive in good condition. Express Delivery includes an insurance policy, which may cost more but provides added peace of mind.



If you order before 4pm we dispatch the same working day (Mon-Fri). Shipping prices start at £4.99 depending on the speed of delivery required.

Bolbitus heudelotii is a great-looking plant with fern like stems and leaves. With an eye-catching shade of green and lush cascading leaves this plant will bring an earthy and natural look to your aquarium. This plant reaches 15-40cm tall and wide. When planting do not cover the rhizome because it will rot.

Originating from Africa, the Bolbitus heudelotii, like the Anubias, prefer less light. However more CO2 will encourage lush growth. This plant will grow best when bound to wood or rock, they also prefer strong water movement so place close to a filter where possible.

just wish it wer' true

the plant arrived as usual in perfect tip top condition as per AQUA essential Standards I left it as usual in a larger cut plastic bag cut to allow an oxygenating flow through of water for a good 12 hrs or more but the breeding pair of Blue Acara as they've done with other plants spotted despite them and possibly spent all night Encamped waiting for their chance to strike, despite them having as near to natural a diet possible, I tied the plant to a lump of bog wood with my faithful Dry Yucca Plant Leaf String BRILLIANT Stuff & as Natural as it comes, put it in a temporary home but they've had a go so sadly their days are numbered I'm going to contact Les @ Complete Koi & Aquatics a Brilliant Shop by the way and re home them that way but I cannot sing the praises for Aqua Essentials Highly Enough ! Great Plants & Excellent Customer Service & Support which to me personally, is Paramount in these Days of't Tinterweb Thankyou A/E Mark. PS Just to add as usual the Blue Brigade have left the Lagenandra Meeboldii Red alone up to now

Your plants will be wrapped with recyclable Honey Comb wrap - sounds cool because it is :). It interlocks which means we don't need to use tape either, reducing our impact on the environment.

Not only is delivery fast with DPD Express but it's also green as they offset all the carbon their vehicles produce. Guilt free delivery which we're very proud of...
