 Product Description

Pogostemon helferi – Pogo

Pogostemon helferi usually only grows up to 5cm tall and about 10cm wide with its distinctive curly leaves and striking bright green colour. In the right lighting conditions and a substrate rich in nutrients Pogostemon helferi will form side shoots, which in turn develop small roots and the plant will reasonable quickly form a visually breathtaking foreground carpet.
Pogostemon helferi grows well in slightly acidic, soft to medium hardness water conditions with high light. Add CO2 to the equation and you will quickly see your growth rate increase. Pogostemon helferi originated in waters that were fast flowing, so you may find the plant does better in a tank with a bit of flow. You will also find that Pogostemon helferi requires plentiful nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium along with micronutrients.
