thanks again very much. i have a lot of fun planting these. i think that the most compelling aspect about ripariums is that one can grow plants that haven't really been kept in aquariums before. another feature is that the
emersed forms of popular aquarium plants--many such plants can grow either fully immersed, or up into the air--can also be grown successfully and planted in an aesthetically pleasing aquascape. i am especially fond of plants in genus
Cryptocoryne
here is a
C. undulata, a really handsome plant, in a riparium planter.

crypts have really great flowers. blooming is one of the main objectives of hobbyists who grow them. this is a
C. wendtii flower.
