Aroid: Cryptocoryne albida
Hi all,
This is the water trumpet known as Cryptocoryne albida. It's in the Araceae family of plants which includes peace lilies and Anthuriums. I have a small collection of them (different species) in a 15 gallon emergent tank. They bloom often, but I forget to check for blooms often, so miss them.
