Water Wisteria AKA The HARDIEST Hygrophila (Hygrophila difformis)
These have been underwater in a big deep basin for 2.5-3 weeks and should transition perfect to your aquarium. (They still have some above water growth but the work has been done... they are rolling!)
These are NICE Underwater grown plants with good roots.
They are about 6-7 inches tall. They are a NITRATE SPONGE!
Water Wisteria is simply an AWESOME beginner plant. Water Wisteria AKA Hygrophila difformis, can take anything you can throw at it.
True to it's latin name, difformis means to be irregularly or unevenly or differently formed. This hygrophila's foliage is ruffled and unique, adding a striking texture to your tank.
Wisteria one of those plants that when you get it going it will grow like a weed. Try it out while you are a rookie and see. Water Wisteria does well in a newly planted tank.
I like to float it personally as it gets more light and send off some really great long flowing roots. Fish love hiding and breeding in Water Wisteria's roots.
In an order you get 4-6 nice bushy stems of it, often with great roots already going.
The stems are beefy as if they have been growing in down in dirt. This picture doesn't do this great plant justice... This is one of our best selling plants for a reason. We grow them in a 90 gallon aquarium in the greenhouse which gets FULL morning sun. The plants love this and grow like crazy for us...then on to you.
NOTE: While Water Wisteria is one of our best selling aquarium plants, we do stock other forms of Hygrophila as well. (Many of our Hygrophila's are just as hardy)eck out our HARDY Hygrophila Cordata RED,
Or Hygrophila Cherry Leaf, or Hygrophila Compact
Care Scale of 1-10: ( 1- it can grow in your toilet- 10 being nearly impossible)
Wisteria is a 1.5 (only because it might lose a few leaves in shipping)
Lighting:
Can handle super low lighting, grows faster in high light
Where to Plant:
Background or float it.
Don't Forget To Buy our Growth Juice and Iron Supplements for your plants!!

Thanks Dustin my plants got here fast and healthy will order again and have .
My plants always come fast and perfect. Always in great shape and never scrimps.
I found Dustin's Fishtanks through an ad on Instagram. They were advertising the Water Wisteria and I was in need of a healthy, hardy tank plant. The springwater and tap water here are high in nitrates and I needed a nitrate warrior! The plants arrived quickly and healthy; so excited to find a surprise freebie plant as well! I could immediately tell that there was a lot of love and care for the plants. My neons have spent countless hours swimming between the leaves.
I look forward to purchasing more plants from Dustin's Fishtanks in the next week or so!
I bought 6 bundles, and got an extra bundle, plus a free floater that’s healthy and beautiful, a red tiger lotus bulb, and a banana plant all as freebies! Everything is super healthy. Will definitely order again in the future.
