<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: #99cc00;"><strong><span style="color: #ffffff;"></span></strong></span>Common Name: UG, Utricularia Graminifolia</p> <p>UG is a highly sought after foreground plant that can produce a grass-like lawn of carpet.  This carnivorous plant is like an aquatic grass, with thin stalks growing from roots that spread horizontally by sending our runners.</p> <p>High lighting and CO2 injection are not always necessary to grow UG but it will definitely increase the growth speed and thickness of the foreground. This plant can grow submerged or emersed in dry start aquariums and Wabi Kusa. Simply separate larger mats into small portions and plant each an inch or so apart halfway into the substrate. After several weeks, the plant will send our runners all around and a lush foreground of grass can be created.</p> <p class="p1"><b>Notes:</b></p> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"> <span class="s1"></span>Utricularia Graminifolia is notorious for being finicky in a planted aquarium.
