Pogostemon stellatus ‘Narrow Leaf’ is a fast-growing stem plant with long, slender green leaves that create soft movement and texture throughout the aquarium. Its upright growth makes it an excellent choice for the midground or background, where it can develop into a full, flowing group.
This adaptable plant grows well in a wide range of freshwater setups. Moderate to bright lighting encourages denser growth, while added CO₂ can improve its color and overall form but is not required.

Separate the stems and plant them individually about 1–2 inches apart to give each stem room to develop. Trim the tops as the plant grows and replant the cuttings to create a fuller group.
Live plants may vary naturally in height, fullness and color. Minor leaf loss or melting can occur after shipping as the plant adjusts to new water conditions.
