Cyperus helferi


lobelia 'small form'


Limnophila aromatica. I was using 3" pot to understand the affect of water depth and pots height. Although I didn't take a photo of the 5" pot, the limnophila in the 5" pot is only 1 to 3" tall compare to this 5-8" tall plant

Nice stuff Edge! Have you been able to flower the aromatica indoors?

Can you provide a link to the original thread? It's always nice to know details about how people are doing things.

Thanks Cavan,

No I have not been able to flower the aromatica. I haven't seen any flower pods from the L. aromatica. I can not get plants to flower in such high humidity setup. I have a lot of flower pods on the nesaea, but they stay close all the time.

Water droplets are form on the flower pods and all over the glass in the setup. I can't take any picture of the setup because all people would see are water droplets on the glass. I don't plan to wipe down the glass for photos.


Here is the link to the crypt setup. There is a detail explanation on the setup in the link as well.

You believe humidty has something to do with flowering? You haven't had any flowerings at all?

In my current, very humid setup, I have flowers from Polygonum hydropiperoides, Hemianthus sp. (the two-leaf stuff), Anubias barteri var. nana, and what I believe may be C. wendtii 'green gecko'. I do have a tiny bit of aromatica gettings started in there, so we'll see if that does anything.

actually, I believe the humidity stops the flowers from opening. I had nesaea opened 2 years ago open top in the house, but can't get them to open in this setup. I just see flower buds on the older stems. The same buds from 3 months ago.

I think it varies from genus to genus. I couldn't get echinodorus flower to open in a humid setup either. If anubias and Crypt can flower under water, I don't see why it can't flower in a soggy condition.

Let me know how the aromatica does in your humid setup.
