Aaron, will you ever have Echinodorus purpurea? I'm looking around for some of the smaller (<12") swords.

Thanks James. It's really nice to see how pleased everyone is with the plants I send them.

I do have an E. 'Purpurea'. I'm still growing it out for it to get large enough for daughter plants. I suspect it will still be about 3 months or so. I also have E. 'Deep Purple' growing out as well.

I still have the following up for grabs....

#1 Echinodorus 'Red Devil' - $30.00 / 6"-7" tall daughter plant (2 available)
Gets to be about 18"-20" tall. New leaves are deep red and stay that way under intense lighting. This is a very rare cultivar in the United States as are the other words in this tank.

#2 Echinodorus 'Tricolor' - $10.00 / 3"-4" tall daughter plant (4 available)
Directly from Aquafleur nurseries in the Netherlands this sword gets to be about 18" tall or so. New leaves are almost white with some markings. They turn hot pink and then bright green over time.

#5 Cryptocoryne sp. - $4.00 / 6" tall mother plant (4 available)
This Cryptocoryne gets about 6" tall. My best guess at the ID of this plant is C. wendtii 'Green Gecko', though it seems to have darker green leaves, the markings are very similar down to the purplish underside of the leaves that develops. It was traded to me merely as Cryptocoryne hybrid x.

#4 Taxiphyllum alternans (Tawain Moss) - $5.00 / larger than a golfball sized portion (2 available)

Taxiphyllum sp. 'Peacock (Peacock Moss) - $5.00 / larger than a golfball sized portion (4 available)

Thanks Roy. It's been a pleasure chatting with you about our respective clubs. I hope you can share it with your fellow Washingtonians.

That is Cryptocoryne usteriana. It actually is only red / pink on the underside of the leaves. The tops of the leaves are an olive green color and the leaves are extremely bullate. I should have some available in a few weeks or so.
