"Major" Sword (Echinodorus Major) Ruffled Swords! (6-7 inches tall)
NOTE: The plant that you will receive looks like the photos labeled "AS OF 8/28/25"
Echinodorus Major.
These are 6-10 inch MONSTERS. SEE PHOTOS!
This is an amazing sword for your mid-ground plant in a larger tank or a background plant for your smaller tanks.
It's a phenomenal plant. It grows fast and the leaf shape on these plants is great. Can be planted directly into the substrate as well as above. We recommend at least some kind of fertilization (like our GROWTH JUICE) for best growth-
Or a dirted tank :) (Make sure and check out the NEW Dustin's Dirt Packs....used in conjunction with ANY Sword- the swords will Grow MASSIVE..think like a plant. Plants eat at their roots!)
This plants leaf shape will change with its size. Expect these plants to produce small narrow leaves and to not get very big. This plant should be planted in your midground.
These plants are completely grown under water. Trimmed back above ground growth. Get 1 or 2 of these swords to really fill out your tank today!!!
Swords like an above average amount of Iron if you aren't going to go the whole "Dirted Tank" routine. (A Dirted Tank is worth at least understanding)
Customer Reviews
Outstanding size and health. Bunches were very nice. Long roots on all. Very happy.
The sword arrived beautifully packaged and full, as described. I was disappointed to see how small the roots were clipped to. Also, the stems were fragile and broke off easily when I planted the sword in the substrate. I am hoping the roots will grow. Such small roots for large leaves.
Ordered both swords and Hygrophila Corymbosa 'Compacta', When the shipment arrived the contents were extremely hot. The silver pouch was hot to the touch the ice bag place in the bag was hot and everything was either melting, distressed and unusable. Two out of Five swords so far have survived, one out of Ten Compacta was usable. Very disappointed in the packing of the product.
The plants I received from Dustin's were healthy and beautiful. They look great in my tank. I'll be ready to order again soon.
I thought this was pretty in the picture, but when I dropped it in the tank I couldn’t believe how stunning it was. I may have to get a few more.
