Description
The leaves of the Indian Bamboo Plant, (Gigantochloa scortechinii), are interesting and very useful! They are surprisingly durable, good sized (10″/25.4cm or more! ), and look remarkably “tropical”- making them perfect for aquariums, vivariums, insect enclosures, etc.
These leaves last a very long term submerged, and make a great compliment to a botanical-style aquarium, providing color contrast and an altogether different look than any other leaves we offer!
They’re are harvested for us by hand by a family-owned operation from a small village in India. They’re free of pesticides, herbicides, and pollution. They’re gathered after having fallen from the trees, rinsed and air dried.
PREPARATION: Before using the leaves in your aquarium, we recommend boiling them for about 10 minutes, or steeping them in boiling water for about 10 minutes or so.
