Micranthemum Umbrosum - Giant Baby Tears - (bare root) WL526

Description

Micranthemum umbrosum, commonly known as Giant Baby Tears, is a beautiful bright-green stem plant prized for its small, rounded leaves and lush, bushy growth. Its vibrant coloration and dense appearance make it an excellent choice for creating contrast and texture in planted aquariums.

This versatile species can be used in the midground or background and responds exceptionally well to regular trimming, allowing aquarists to create full, attractive bushes. Under strong lighting and CO₂ supplementation, Micranthemum umbrosum develops compact growth and can quickly become a standout feature in any aquascape.

Plant Details:

  • Scientific Name: Micranthemum umbrosum
  • Common Name: Giant Baby Tears
  • Type: Bare Root Plant
  • Placement: Midground to Background
  • Growth Rate: Fast
  • Difficulty: Easy to Moderate
  • Lighting: Medium to High
  • CO₂: Recommended for best growth
  • Temperature: 20–28°C (68–82°F)
  • pH: 5.5–7.5

Why You'll Love It: ✔ Bright green coloration enhances any aquascape
✔ Dense, bushy growth habit
✔ Ideal for creating natural-looking plant groups
✔ Fast-growing and easy to propagate
✔ Excellent for Dutch-style and Nature Aquarium layouts

Care Tips: Plant individual stems with adequate spacing to encourage healthy growth and water circulation. Regular trimming will promote thicker, more compact growth and help maintain the desired shape.

Note: As a bare root plant, each specimen may vary slightly in size and appearance. Rinse thoroughly before planting and remove any damaged leaves or roots prior to introducing the plant to your aquarium.
