I really appreciate it if someone could answer this question for me: Can you grow Dragon trees/plants in water with pebbles? If not, what are some easy care plants that can be grown in water with pebbles (besides “lucky bamboo”) please help!!
you can ask this question at http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/aquascaping/54329-un-bout-de-nature.html
Thank you!
Dear Olileon,
What is the name of the plant in jpg frame #8? I had a wonderful aqua plant years back that was very fine leaf. The man I bought it from just called it ‘aquarium grass’..obviously has other names. Anyway I would cut it with a scissors and plant it and it would be form of little shrubs and grew fast. It was beautiful but alas after several years I got a bad dark algae on it and it all died out. I can not find it locally in any aquatic stores. (bunch plant) and it rooted along stems like your photo -but very small leaves and rich pretty green. I’d love to know more about what the plant may have been
thanks / Llewellyn

Wow, that’s a gorgeous tank! A lot of planning and time went into it, but not in vain!
