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.
The Lilaeopsis mauritiana is a beautiful aquatic plant that was discovered on the island of Mauritius in 1992 by Holger Windeløv, the founder of Tropica. This plant is unique to Mauritius and is similar to another aquarium plant called Lilaeopsis brasiliensis.
One of the things to keep in mind when growing Lilaeopsis mauritiana is that it will grow slowly, but if you prune it regularly, it will become thicker and denser. This plant requires a bit less light than the Lilaeopsis brasiliensis, but it should be planted in the same way.
One great way to showcase this plant in your aquarium is to plant it at the foreground and let it carpet the front of your tank. This will create a lush, green carpet that will add a lot of beauty to your aquarium. And since it requires less light than other aquatic plants, it's generally easier to grow.
In summary, the Lilaeopsis mauritiana is a unique and beautiful aquarium plant that can add a lot of beauty to your aquarium. It grows slowly but can be encouraged to grow thicker and denser with regular pruning. It requires less light than other aquatic plants, plus, planting it in the foreground of your tank will create a beautiful and lush green carpet that will make your aquarium stand out.
