    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.

    Microsorum pteropus, commonly known as Java fern, is a popular aquarium plant among aquarium enthusiasts, particularly for beginners. Originating from Southeast Asia, Java fern is a slow-growing plant that can thrive in a wide range of water conditions and light intensities. It is a hardy plant that can tolerate a range of temperatures and pH levels, making it an ideal choice for low-maintenance aquariums.

    One of the most distinctive features of Java fern is its long, narrow, and leathery leaves that grow from a rhizome. The plant does not have true roots, but instead, it anchors itself to rocks, driftwood, or other aquarium decorations with its rhizome. This makes Java fern an excellent choice for aquascaping, as it can add a natural look to an aquarium while also providing a hiding place for fish and invertebrates.

    Java fern is also known for its ability to absorb nutrients and pollutants from the water, improving the overall water quality of the aquarium. This plant can be propagated by dividing its rhizome and replanting it, making it a cost-effective option for aquarists.

    In conclusion, Java fern is an excellent aquarium plant for beginners due to its hardiness and low-maintenance requirements. Its unique appearance and ability to improve water quality make it a popular choice among aquarists, while its ease of propagation makes it a cost-effective option.

    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...
