Pogostemon Stellata “Octopus”
Pogostemon Stellata
We have really come a long way with this plant. We used to think it wasn't as hardy as others, but now, after a year of keeping it, it isn't as demanding as we had once thought.
A very similar plant with a purple hue would be eustralis stellata!!!!!!
I run this in my friend's aquariums and you can see it kind of over ran the aquarium. It was under one of our "Standard Double LEDs" however it didn't have that great of substrate.
This plant will give you a long flowing look which is a nice contrast to tall and long background plants like Jungle Val.
Grab some Pogostemon Stellata and take the colors of your aquarium to the next level.
I would definitely call this plant an Intermediate Plant. Worth your time to look at and an incredible addition to any tank. I suggest this for someone with a moderate lighting and nutrient set up. On a scale from 1 to 10. 1 being you can grow it in a toilet and 10 being impossible. I give Pogostemon Stellata a 3.5. Because it doesn't like change!. So it has to resettle in it's environment!
Don't Forget To Buy our Growth Juice and Iron Supplements for your plants!!

This plant is doing nicely and it adds texture to the aquascape. I planted it in the mid ground, hopefully it doesn't get too much taller.
Plants arrived in great condition. They have done nothing but flourish! I’ve trimmed them 3 times and replanted in 2 other tanks plus the one the original is in. It just keeps growing and growing. I’m getting some of the purple tint on my leaves near the top. My tetras and baby angels live hiding in them. Actually all my plants are from Dustin!!!
Plants arrived in great shape. Look nice in my lyre tail guppy tank.
The plants I've been ordering lately from DFT have been taking a bit longer to arrive (5-7days) but the plants have still been in good shape.
Order the two for one of these plants. All three bunches came healthy. Looking plants. Always satisfied with Dustin’s plants.
