Pogostemon stellatus 'Dassen' is a stunning stem plant characterized by its fine, needle-like leaves that grow in dense whorls. It adds a unique texture and vibrant green color to the aquarium landscape.
This plant is moderately demanding. It requires a nutrient-rich substrate and regular liquid fertilization, particularly iron, to maintain its health and color.
High lighting is necessary for this variety. Insufficient light will lead to leggy growth and the loss of lower leaves.
Thrives in freshwater with CO2 injection. It prefers slightly acidic to neutral pH and stable water parameters.
Due to its height and rapid growth, it is best placed in the background of the aquarium where it can form a dense, bushy screen.
Propagation is achieved by cutting the top shoots or side branches and replanting them into the substrate.
