Default The green form of Crypt striolata (in situ)
April 19, 2009. In this trip, I found a species of Crypt. in a limestone outcrop where I never explored before.

This is a green form of Cryptocoryne striolata . I am really surprised it can grow well in the hard water area (limestone). The water is coming out from a small subterranean stream.

Cryptocoryne striolata!!! I never seen a green form before. Probably a new record!??









Most of the limestone hills here got vertical cliff......not easy to explore in this area.
