And am I correct in saying that this is C. Cordata "blassii"?

Also has anyone else noticed the wierd smells of these blooms??
Im sure this one has a rotten flesh sort of smell. Unless a guppy from the tank is rotting around the plant somewhere.



Thanks in advance

Great job in blooming these cryptocorynes, so what substrate mix did you use?

Nothing scientific, Just a mixture of sand, clay and regular potting mix with a bit of peat mixed in.

Can you please confirm the above ID's.Thanks

I think the first one might be walkeri. The leaves are very unusual for cordata, but not for walkeri:

The third one is almost certainly cordata.

Not sure about the second one, I'll look at it again later.

The second one looks like a wendtii to me.
