Lilaeopsis brasiliensis – Tissue Culture Aquarium Plant

Lilaeopsis brasiliensis, commonly known as Brazilian Micro Sword, is a popular carpeting plant used in aquascaping to create a natural grass-like foreground. Its narrow, bright green blades spread through runners, gradually forming a lush carpet across the aquarium substrate.

This plant is grown using sterile tissue culture techniques in our laboratory in Winnipeg, Canada, ensuring it is completely free of algae, pests, and snails. Tissue culture plants are ideal for both new aquariums and established tanks, including shrimp tanks and sensitive aquascapes.
