Description

This plant is made up of small hairy green leaves floating on the surface. Salvinia are not hardy and can be burnt by cold winds. It makes a very attractive plant in shallow bowls with a little soil and kept in a warm, light position.

Repotting or planting

We suggest 3-5 small floating plants per 1m²
