Plant Description
Anacharis (Elodea) is an oxygenating plant that grows beneath the surface of the water with narrow green leaves on long green stems. Anacharis is sold in bunches. Anacharis helps in algae elimination by competing for the same nutrients that algae needs to thrive, while adding oxygen to the water. There are multiple forms of Anacharis. We now sell the most cold tolerant variety and the only native to north america which is elodea .
Planting Instructions
Anacharis stems can be planted in the substrate or planted in small containers using sand or small gravel. They can also be anchored with small weights. Anacharis is one of the very best pond plants that helps to eliminate algae as well as adding oxygen to the water. You can also plant cuttings from anacharis (elodea plants) to multiply the oxygenating benefits.Plant Restrictions
Native Anacharis plants can be sent to all 50 states, note the native anacharis is still very aggressive but a narrower plant than the invasive non native elodea anacharis
Note there is a similar plant, Anacharis Najas-- along with many other great submerged oxygenators that are legal and more winter hardy.
