Callitriche Stagnalis (Starwort) Oxygenating Pond Plant - Fish or Wildlife Pond and bog Aquatic Plants - 2 Bunches

growing well

This "plant" arrived in a small plastic bag in a sturdy letterbox sized cardboard box. Then it all goes downhill. I tipped the whole lot into a pint glass full of rainwater to see what there was. The plant turns out to be a single strand of weed, with a weight attached to one end, accompanied by various bits of broken weed and loose leaves. After two weeks in the glass the strand had grown in length to reach the top of the glass so I thought it was time to transfer it to deeper water. Unfortunately it was all an illusion, the strand was so weak it disintegrated when I lifted it out of the water and the part attached to the weight was found to be rotten. I now have three small pieces floating on the surface of the water in the glass. Doesn't look promising.

Disappointing - not sure that's £32 worth of plants - some of the 'bunches' are very small and thin.

Although not looking fantastic when unwrapping, pleased to say they are growing fine and looking really healthy now.

This is was great, but my fish in the pond soon pulled it apart, they enjoyed it. Was well packaged and in good condition upon arrival.

Good value for money

The plant that was posted to me does not in any way resemble the plant in the photo used in their ad. it does NOT have a big white flower it is simply the green around the flower in the photo. Certainly is not worth the money especially as if you go to the companies own website it is only 2 pounds not nearly 5 pounds that they charge on Amazon. I did contact the company asking them why they advertise this plant with a photo showing a big white flower when in fact it does not have such a flower but they ignored my question. They did, however, send me out a different kind of plant that does flower so although the photo used for this plant is very misleading the company itself is very quick to try and make amends, the company I would reccomend the flower I would not. Also you need to be awre that the plants they send out must be back in water within 7 days of being posted to you,

Poor and Sickly looking plant on arrival, very small and fragile strands to work with and looked as if it was rotting. Hoped to bring some life to it when it went into my pond. Ended up sinking to the depths and haven't seen it since. Price is a rip-off too. Will not be buying again sadly.
