Val Asiatica Biwaensis
NOTE: The second photo with my hand and thumb is what one looks like. The third photo is the clump of all of them available as of 7.11.25
"Hello my name is Dustin and I have a Val problem."
The first step is admitting the problem right? I love Val and am on a quest to collect ALL of the varieties of Val. I have said it before and I'll sat it again. I would like val in my coffin if something happens to me.
Enter- The next Val. Val Asiatica Biwaensis.
What does it's name mean? I have no idea. Something to do with Asia. Here is what we do know. It's pretty killer.
This Val is like a mix between Spiral Val (or Val Torta/ corkscrew) with the spiral leaves crossed with GIANT Val.
Yep- it has a thicker and wider leaf to it with a neat spiral as well.
Because of the thicker leaves of this species of Vallisneria, it will take tad longer to grow back than a thin variety if they melt back.
Customer Reviews
These are so nice. I received several healthy plants of varying heights. The older leaves have started to melt back but new, green growth is already coming up.
I've ordered from DustinsFishtanks several times and have always received healthy, well packed and promptly shipped plants 🪴. They respond quickly, professionally, and friendly. This team of knowledgeable, hard working folks will always be my only source for aquarium plants!!
Each pot has 3-4 plants in it. So much beauty and fun with the spirals! Love this plant
This is the first time I have tried val biwaensis. It came in good condition and is doing well so far.
Plants were delivered quickly, healthy, and well packaged! I am very happy with my purchase, and can’t wait till the plants start growing in my aquarium! Each pot had a couple stems of Val so I was able to spread them across the back of my tank. I will shop with Dustin again! Thanks
