The plants got here today and I could not be more happy with the quality of plants and packing!
They were packed incredibly good with a large bubble pack!
It was the perfect amount of plants too!
I put a clump in front of my heater in my new 5 gal and a clump in the back of my 36 and I put the salvinia between the 36 and a 10 grow out.

Do you have anything left? I'm happy to take whatever you have as the winter wiped out a good deal of what I had.

4/15 Update:

I finally got out most of the previous requests (and there were quite a few), and I once again have a lot of extras to send out.

-Salvinia Minima - aka floating fern, ak Water Spangles - I have a bucketful or two, I will ship anyone as much as they want
(Keep in mind Salvinia itself is a banned plant in 4 or 5 states, but only Texas has banned even Salvinia Minima outright, I won't ship it there, and if you choose to get rid of it from your tanks, in any state, please throw it away or let it dry/die in the sun - it's ability to self propagate is great in our fish tanks but not great in the wild)

-Narrow Leaf Anacharis (Egeria Najas) - Great for Betta tanks!
I have a lot of this as well, the more I trim it the more it grows.
I cannot ship it to CA but most other states are ok, Egeria has other types that are not allowed in several states (incl. Oregon) but Najas is banned only in CA as far as I know


As I trim and adjust tanks, I'll have in small quantities in the next 2-3 weeks:

-Ammannia Senegalensis (bit orange edges)

-Ammannia Gracilis (bit of pink/red on the edges)

-Red Myriophyllum

-Myriophyllum Mattogrossense

-Nomaphila Variegatus

-Hygrophila difformis aka Water Wisteria



I'm not shipping out as quickly as I'd like (Shelter in Place is causing more upheaval than not in some ways), but I am shipping out for free, to anyone who wants/needs plants.

If you want ANY of these plants over the next 2-4 weeks (that's about how fast I'm shipping out, keeping in mind all the plants are in staying submersed this entire time) please send me a PM with what you'd like, your name & address or email address and I'll respond as quickly as I'm able.


FYI - I do have fish, shrimp & snails in every tank, though the plants go through a 'quarantine' here in plant only conditions for app. 2 weeks before I'm shipping, there is a chance they will bring something with them wherever they go (snail eggs in particular, they came to me from the Plant shops and they go out on the plants no matter how much I rinse them) - you may want to quarantine the plants or rinse them in a solution of your choice for cleaning before placing in your fish tanks.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As many of my plants are so happy they are multiplying in numbers greater than I have space for in my tanks (and I like to make room for new plants), I’m just going to post the ‘extras’ here - if anyone wants them, I’ll mail for free. I can’t get to the LFS while they’re closed and I don’t want to discard healthy plants.

I’m not sure I’ll be able to locate a bunch of warmers for the packages but I’ll ship priority mail and that should suffice (unless you’re in a snowy region).

-Salvinia Minima - floating plant, short roots, prefers low flow water surface for propagation

-Anacharis - everything plant, can be planted in substrate, attached to rocks, or left floating (Bettas love to rest in this, esp at night) - it will do well in almost any conditions

-Java Fern - can be attached to rocks or just left to sink, easy to grow in any tank, appreciates light fertilizer

Soon:

Water Wisteria

These are all from my current running tanks, not plant only tanks. I’ve had no fish/invert health concerns in these tanks for 6+ weeks.
There is small possibility of hidden snail eggs though I will do all I can to remove them.
Hin that is is nice of you to offer free plants. I would LOVE some. I live in Massachusetts.
I am just cyclling a 20 gallon and a 10 gallo right now and desperately need plants. I do not get to get fancy with my plants low to medium light and I use fluvial subtrate no co2. What do I need to do to pay for shipping Thanks

So nice of you to offer free plants. I am cycling 20 gallon long and 10 gallon. I lost a ton of my plants due to bad lighting and being green. Live and learn. LOL Would love what ever you want to send me. I use low ligh/ medium light and use fluvial substrate. 12 betta fish in their own tanks. Let me know how to pay for shipping.

For anyone wondering this, I believe she private messages everyone. So you won't see a conversation about this and that on here.

Yes, I still have some plants (or lots of plants depending on your pov). I am NOT getting updates from this thread at all for some reason, and sometimes PMs don't 'ping' me but I do check those more than this thread.

I got nearly everyones recent requests out but have a couple more to send off (ran out of boxes and bags) and can send send out others if folks want anything.

Send me a PM if you want any of the plants, and/or have not gotten a delivery! Technology and its quirks is only adding to my crazy covid life lately, I'm not trying to ignore anyones requests.

Java Fern is the least of what I have left, but I do have a bunch of plantlets coming up so I can send those out towards the end of the month!

Salvinia, Anacharis, Wisteria and (new addition!) Mermaid Weed will probably be on my always have some to send list. Just fyi.

HI, Addi, would you please have a look at the shipping information? The tracking showed the label created already 1 week, but no update so far, anything wrong?

Thanks for your kindness!!

Any left?

Salvinia, Rotala Rotundifolia (Ceylon) are what I'll probably have left for extras after sending out stuff this weekend. Possibly Anacharis.


Any salvinia and wisteria left?

Yes, I have some of both left (Salvinia is never ending). Just send me an address in PM and I'll get it off this weekend.

I’m always interested in plants if you have any extras!

I'll get back to your message in a few!

I got your message too and I'll respond shortly.

Sorry, I have to cancel I talked with my parents over it and they aren't much of a fan of random (not) people sending me stuff. Too paranoid over the virus I guess.

I want to let everyone know that these cuttings are great! My wisteria is already showing new growth. The baby java ferns leaves are bright and bushy. The salvinia got sucked up by my filter, so we'll see how it does in my sponge filter tank. And my second order: The anacharis is beautiful (not growing yet since they just arrived yesterday) and so is the mermaid weed. We'll see how those fill in.
P.S I haven't used any fertilizers. Sand in one tank, plain ol' gravel in the others
