Add compact greenery and vibrant texture to your aquascape with Tropica Gratiola viscidula, supplied in a clean, pest-free in-vitro pot. This hardy stem plant is known for its small, serrated leaves and dense growth, making it an excellent choice for midground or foreground planting.

Gratiola viscidula is easy to establish and adapts well to a wide range of aquarium conditions. Its bushy form provides excellent coverage, while its fresh green colour creates striking contrast against other plant shapes and shades.
