Littorella Uniflora, also known as Shoreweed, is quite an interesting aquarium plant in the hobby. Easily recognized by its rounded foliage with pointy tips, Littorella Uniflora is generally easy to maintain and can be grown submerged or emersed. This aquatic plant will adapt to a range of aquarium tank conditions, including colder water temperatures. Like all aquatic plant species, this aquatic plant will do much better when provided with quality aquarium lighting, clean water, and a normal dosing schedule. Littorella Uniflora propagates by sending runners and will carpet an aquarium foreground, but growth will be quite slow. If patience is not a problem, this aquatic plant will provide an interesting carpet of fat, fleshy leaves and is a beautiful addition to any planted aquarium tank.
Tissue culture plants are grown in-vitro by laboratories who specialize in propagating aquatic plants. There is a huge selection of plant species that have been propagated this way. This is truly the best option for those who want absolutely zero unwanted pests, algae, and pesticides. This makes them perfect for shrimp keepers and any planted tank enthusiasts alike.
NOTE: It is important to remove the tissue culture agar gel before planting. Simply wash the gel away, divide, and plant.

Slightly different tone than the photo but honestly it looks better in person.
Packaging was thoughtful, and the instructions were actually written by a human.
Second one I have bought. Build quality is consistent and the seams are clean.
Shipped as a potted tissue-culture or bunch plant, wrapped in damp wool inside an insulated liner. Plants leave the bench Monday through Wednesday so nothing sits in a depot over a weekend.
