Looks great well done!

By the way can staurogyne flower underwater? Never seen this happening
Hi Costa.
Thanks for looking. I dont believe it would flower underwater, like most plants it is only emersed growth when you get to see them.

Nothing flower under water (=no pollinators:() - those which went down that road are extinct (=Darwin roules:cigar:!!!!).
- when flowering take place under water (ex. the occasional Anubias) it is accidental. Usually induced by stress, provoking buds allready laying dormant.

Vallisneria comes close, though;
male flowers are produced below surface, between the bases of leaves, opening under water and sending pollen to surface - female flowers are sitting on very long, soft and often spiral-curled stems, the flower looking like a small banana riding on surface-tension. Actual flower laying just in surface, catching the pollen that also ride on surface-tension.
I think this is as close to water-pollination we will come...........:happy: (Mother Nature is fascinating, aint she).
