- 5-15cm
- Temperature
- 22〜28℃
- Watering

- Lighting
- Grows beautifully under bright lighting, and under strong light the plant takes on a brown to reddish tint. In weak light the colour fails to develop and the plant becomes loose.
- CO2 & Fertilizer
- CO2 injection is recommended, combined with both substrate and liquid fertiliser. Lower leaves melt easily when nutrients are short, so fertilise regularly.

- Substrate
- Nutrient-rich soil is best. Absorbs mainly from roots
- Trimming & Propagation
- It produces side shoots and can be propagated by dividing the clump. Planted in a group in the midground to background it forms a bush-like scene.
- Notes
- Plant firmly as it uproots easily. Spreads via runners
