Eriocaulon Vietnam (Tropica 1-2-Grow!) for Detailed Scapes

Eriocaulon Vietnam is a rosulate Asian species that forms a tidy, spiky rosette ranging from 3 to over 20cm, giving you flexible placement from foreground accent to a midground feature as it matures. Supplied as a tissue-culture cup, it arrives clean and pest-free, ready to plant as individual rosettes. We rate it as a rewarding plant for hobbyists ready to move beyond easy species into more textural, design-led aquascaping.

With a medium growth rate and medium light and CO2 demand, it sits comfortably in a balanced planted tank rather than a low-tech setup. Like most Eriocaulon it appreciates soft water, which Singapore’s tap supply provides once dechlorinated, and our warm 27-29C range needs no chiller. Give it a nutritious substrate and steady flow, and space rosettes apart so each develops its full radiating form without crowding.
