Mature plant photographs show potential growth, not a guaranteed arrival size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAponogeton ulvaceus is one of the easier and more prolific Aponogeton species, producing large, broad lime-green to pale green leaves with an attractive wave-edged surface and a translucent quality in light that gives the plant a luminous, ethereal appearance. It is a fast-growing species that can produce impressive results relatively quickly from a dormant bulb and can become one of the most dominant background plants in a large aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt grows in low light without CO2 injection and is tolerant of a range of water conditions — one of the more accessible Aponogeton species. Like all Aponogeton it goes through natural dormancy cycles when the leaves die back and the bulb rests before regrowing. Dormancy in this species is often shorter than in more demanding varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant in substrate leaving the top third of the bulb above the surface. It typically grows relatively quickly after coming out of dormancy and can become a very large plant — best suited to aquariums of 100 litres and above as a background centrepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant with the top of the bulb exposed above the substrate.
