Description

Description

Crinum calamistratum originated in Cameroon, these plants produce strong, crinkled leaves that can reach up to 80cm in length in the wild. A happy plant will produce flower stalks amongst the upper leaves.

These plants do not require strong light but they do prefer gentle movement in the water, placing them near an outflow pipe would be ideal. To get the most attractive results use Crinum calamistratum on its own.

Arrived a healthy-looking, well packaged plant and has settled in nicely. Looks happy and enhances my aquarium. Very pleased.

by Kay G. on 5/6/2018

2 months in and its looking very well in my low tech aquarium. It's has the lushest, healthiest colour of all my tough plants and I'm very happy to report that it is totally unaffected by my skittish voraciously vegetarian Silver Dollars. It's unusual crinkles make it a good focal point plant. I use it at a pinch point between two different areas, so the fish swim through/past it like a doorway.

will this plant do well with light from two T5 54w bulbs in a 260l juwel vision?

Staff

Sure will as long as you fertilise the tank with something like Neutro T

Guest

if that plant needs a co2 in the tank

Staff

04/01/2013 17:39:59

It doesn't need CO2

Hello. Could you give an idea of roughly how large this plant comes when ordered?

Staff

About 30cm tall

Could you give an idea of when this might be back in stock? Thanks

Staff

I have no idea to be honest. It's been out of stock with the growers for weeks.

Guest

Yes

Guest

How long does it take a bulb to produce another bulb, do the plants grow slowly or quickly?

Staff

06/20/2014 17:23:43

Very slowly - not something even worth considering.

Guest

Do you know when this or even the XL version will be in stock? Looks fantastic.

Staff

12/07/2015 15:27:30

out of stock with growers so we don't know when it's back in - sorry

Guest

'out of stock with growers' I just bought my plants yesterday and now this comes back in? Thanks. You must have known you'd get stock 3 days after the question was asked.

Staff

12/10/2015 14:42:24

Yes it showed out of stock with growers. We order plants regardless, but occasionally we get back orders and today just 3 arrived.

This plant looks great. I've left it in its pot and I've buried the pot in the substrate (fine sand). Will this be OK?

Staff

07/31/2020 13:50:35

Yes, it'll be fine like that. However, always better to remove from pot.
