Collection: Stem Plants

Stem plants are the workhorses of aquascaping. Fast-growing and easy to propagate, they fill out the background and midground quickly and let you reshape a layout whenever you like.

Trimming and Propagating

The trick with stems is simple. Trim the tops, replant the cuttings, and a single stem soon becomes a thick stand. Regular trimming keeps them bushy and stops the lower leaves from being shaded out.

Emersed or Submersed

Submersed-grown stems settle straight into an aquarium with minimal melt. Emersed-grown suit terrariums and paludariums and transition once submerged. Pick your form on each product page.
