Echinodorus Vesuvius (Spiral Sword)

Echinodorus 'Vesuvius' is a unique dwarf sword with very narrow leaves that twist into tight corkscrew spirals, giving it a fountain-like, whimsical form. Its compact size and grassy texture suit the midground, where the spiraling foliage adds movement. A rosette root-feeder, it does best with root tabs and a nutrient-rich substrate.
