Nymphoides aquatica ‘Banana Plant’

Nymphoides aquatica, also known as “banana plant,” “banana lily,” and “big floating heart” is an interesting plant that originates from the Southeastern United States. Due to its cluster of thick, banana-shaped roots that remain unplanted, a banana plant in aquarium provides a unique look. The plant moderately easy to care for, and it can be grown rooted or floating and is a great addition to aquariums, betta and goldfish bowls.

Description

About Nymphoides Aquatica

The banana plant makes an excellent foreground plant due to its attention-grabbing, banana-shaped roots. A banana plant in an aquarium should not be planted deeper than one-quarter of its entire length. It produces normal roots, in addition to the banana-shaped roots above the substrate. It can grow fully or partially submerged. In ideal conditions, the plant flowers in the tank, and thrives in well-lit conditions.

Propagation

To propagate a banana plant in an aquarium, clip a mature leaf, and then replant it when the roots emerge.
