Common
questions.
Quick answers about carpeting plants. No question is silly, so if yours isn't here, ask us.
Can I grow a carpet without CO2?
Some carpeting plants can grow slowly without CO2, but most popular carpets grow far better with CO2, strong lighting and a nutrient-rich substrate.
How should I plant a carpet?
Split the plant into small portions and plant them about 1–3 cm apart in a fine substrate. Smaller, closer portions fill in more evenly.
How long does a carpet take to fill in?
It depends on the plant, lighting, CO2 and nutrients, and usually takes from several weeks to a few months.
Can I check which plants are in stock?
Yes. Plants move quickly and stock changes week to week, so a profile here doesn’t guarantee a plant is in store today. Call (02) 6686 0002 or send an enquiry before you travel and we’ll let you know.
