Scientifically known as Vallisneria Spiralis, Italian Val is a sleek, grass-like background plant with gently arching leaves that sway freely in the current. Shorter and finer than Jungle Val, it's ideal for medium-sized tanks needing vertical height without overwhelming the aquarium. It spreads readily by runners, thrives in a range of water conditions, and comes fully submerged ready for your aquarium.

• Narrow leaves offer refined, vertical height

• Ideal for small and medium sized aquariums

• Spread by runners for easy propogations

• Tolerates low-tech, low-maintenance setups
