Bacopa caroliniana 'Yellow flame' (GOLDFISH PROOF!)
Bacopa caroliniana "Yellow Flame" Want a hardy stem plant that will give you a nice contrast to your background, without all of the work of faster stem plants that need trimmed all of the time? Say hello to Bacopa!
This Bacopa caroliniana is call the "Yellow flame" variety as it has been produced through selective crossing to accent the yellow tips. Bacopa isn't your fastest growing plant, but this is because it is thicker than most stem plants. It's leaves almost feel rubbery to the touch.
NOTE: We have now had this plant in stock for over a month. You can see how the tips will give you that Redish- Yellow FLAME look under some decent lights.
In the summer we grow it outside where it gets a pinkish red on its tips. (It will take all of the light you can give it or NOT give it)
NOTE: We have also grown in COLD WATER. (It doesn't grow as quickly but still thrives!)
THIS IS A GREAT BEGINNER PLANT. It will take some time to get established but will make a nice addition to ANY Planted Tank. You are getting a bunch with 7-8 stems in it.
This will be one of your favorite plants!!! TRY IT

Customer Reviews
Arrived in great shape.
Received a ton of stems of this plant and the burnt tips looked amazing and traveled well. Hoping I can make the tips even more intense after a few days under my lights. They always catch my attention walking by my tank and I can always find my cories sifting through them.
Beauty....with roots. What I received were cuttings, but they did have some roots. I've only had them two days, but I"m hopeful they will take hold and they look great!
This might be my new favorite Bacopa variety!
The plants came quickly and were packed with care. All of the plants were very healthy and made a great compliment to my tank. I look forward to continued enjoyment as I gaze at the aquarium on my desk while the conference calls drone on.
I highly recommend Dustins for your plant purchases.
