hi
my ambulia is growing quite a bit and there are alot of long shoots coming out. is it possible to cut the shoots and make another bunch of ambulia from it? or will it eventually die off?

cheers louie

you can cut and replant the side shoots, its a great fast growing plant.

Hey Louie, I wish I had your problem.I can grow R.wallichi,tiger lotus,blyxa ,everything but ambulia.It never really gets going & ends up covered in brown crap so I gave up.
Is there a secret to growing ambulia that I don't know about?
Cheers ,fud.

Amazons are not demanding. They do need good substrate or root tabs since they are heavy root feeders though. And med light or higher for best results.
