Care Tips
Plant the roots gently into a quality aquarium substrate while keeping the crown above the gravel or sand. Amazon Swords benefit from root fertilisers and stable water conditions to encourage healthy leaf growth. Remove older leaves as new ones develop to keep your plant looking lush and vibrant.
