Crypts are interesting and beautiful aquatic plants, but with fewer growers and tight import restrictions we're now losing varieties from cultivation in Australia. I'm propagating crypts to pass on to other growers to keep them in the aquarium hobby and building a resource to help with identification. I'm always looking to buy or swap for new varieties to grow.

Cryptocoryne undulata 'green' (Aquafleur)
Crypt. undulata 'green' distributed in europe by Aquafleur. The spathe looks a little C. wendtii to me but it may not be fully open yet. Its not in the greatest of condition (the pot is infested with blue-green algae) but the leaves are certainly bottle green and appear to stay green under high light. The "regular" C. undulata we have in Australia has a bit more olive green/muddy brown colour.
