    Overwintering Ludwigia sedioides

    I have recently tried this plant under a little 40w Arcadia daylight LED spotlight. It appears to grow very well. The real test will be at the end of the year, maybe I will manage to over winter it.

    Can anybody suggest a light source that may be likely to maintain this exasperating plant?

    Overwintering Ludwigia sedioides

    Such a pity that a lovely floating plant appears to not be, "doable". it seems so counter intuitive when other plants from the same areas of south America can be easily grown in temperate Europe with a bit of help. Surely, somebody has mastered the requirements of this plant!

    Overwintering Ludwigia sedioides

    I have found this to be an exasperating plant, because I have not been able to get it through a winter in the UK. My last and best effort, saw it fade away in early February. It did best in a heated tub in the greenhouse with a supplementary mercury vapour spotlight giving a full twelve hours of...

    Ludwigia sedoides

    I think it's a truly striking plant. it needs a lot of light, heat and ferts. I am unsure as to why it's so seldom imported. It is definitely brittle, to survive I think it needs to be in an inflated bag or a rigid plastic packaging (doesn't seem impossible to me) Does anybody know where I can...

    Ludwigia sedoides

    Frosties, do you know why it gets so damaged in transport? is it physical damage such as crushing?, or is it chilling? or lack of light for a few days? The samples that I have received appeared to be very compressed, but I hope that it can regenerate from the growing tip. Is there any way that...

    Ludwigia sedoides

    Well, it appears that very few (only one that I could find) plant vendors are aware of, or willing to import this plant. It does not travel well being somewhat brittle. I am more than impressed by the service from http://www.aquarium-gardening.com , the guy being willing to go the extra mile to...

    Ludwigia sedoides

    Thanks, it appears that this is not an easy plant for a temperate climate, I am getting reports from people who have lost it in glasshouses in the UK. I saw it growing in a heated lilly pool at a major botanical facility in the UK and I was struck by the geometrical beauty of the floating...

    Ludwigia sedoides

    Has anybody ideas as to why this plant does not appear to be available? or where it may be available from? Would it be possible to obtain it from a Botanical collection?

    Java moss that grows as a dense cushion

    Does anybody know about a Java Moss that grows as a dense cushion? is this a characteristic growth form of a moss species? or is it environmental? i.e. light level, CO2 etc. Thanks, Phill.
