Crypt nurii flower?

Post by Judi »

Please tell me this is a flower, and not just a fat, tortured-looking leaf that hasn't opened:

Awesome, Judi, that's very cool! You can compare it to other pictures of C. nurii here:

Here is the picture of the flower (look in the very center of the picture). This grove of c. nurii started with one plant from Ghanzafar. I must have 10 or more plants now. :)

I have never had any Crypt flower and didn't know they would flower under water until last year, very nice guys. My nurii (3) are doing poorly in a tank with Flourite and all my other Crypts are growing like weeds, I might just transfer one to the nano as things seem to grow well in the Stratum even without C02.
Sincerely,
Tim
