Echinodorus Nazgul – Tissue Culture – Rare
Add something extraordinary to your planted aquarium with Echinodorus ‘Nazgul’, a rare sword plant with striking new growth and a bold rosette shape. As its leaves mature and transition towards green, the changing foliage creates a beautiful, layered display.
Its substantial growth makes ‘Nazgul’ an excellent centrepiece or background plant in larger aquariums. Give it room to spread, consistent lighting, and a nutrient-rich substrate to encourage healthy roots and lush foliage.

Tissue Culture Benefits
Laboratory-grown tissue culture provides a clean start without introducing snails or other unwanted hitchhikers.
Planting Instructions: Gently remove the plants from the cup and rinse away the growing medium. Carefully separate individual plantlets where possible, then plant the roots into the substrate while keeping the crown above the surface. Allow space for mature growth.
Sold as one tissue culture cup. Plant size, quantity, leaf shape, and colour may vary. Young tissue culture plants may look different from mature aquarium-grown specimens. Some older leaves may decline during acclimation as new submerged growth develops.
