Description
Elevate the health of your aquatic environment with Ceratophyllum demersum, commonly known as Hornwort. This submerged aquatic perennial is an invaluable oxygenator, capable of thriving at great depths in ponds and lakes. Its long stems of feathery foliage float freely in the water, providing essential oxygen and habitat for aquatic life. Known for its efficiency in nutrient uptake, Hornwort is an excellent competitor with algae, helping to maintain water clarity and balance. With a height and spread of up to 100cm (39"), and a planting depth capability of up to 2m below water level, Ceratophyllum demersum is a versatile and essential addition to any aquatic environment.Introducing Hornwort to your pond or lake is simple and hassle-free. Just cast bunches of stems into water depths of up to 2m, where it will float freely and begin its beneficial work. Alternatively, if you prefer to anchor it in a particular location, adding weights to the bunches will keep it in place. Whether grown in sun or shade, Hornwort grows vigorously, requiring only occasional removal of excess growth to maintain its health and vitality. With its low maintenance requirements and invaluable benefits to aquatic ecosystems, Ceratophyllum demersum is a must-have for any pond or lake owner. How to Grow: Light: Grows well in sun or shade.
