Tropica Vesicularia montagnei 'Christmas Moss' In Vitro
100% sterile laboratory aquarium plants in sealed cup

Christmas Moss is a classic in aquascaping – and for good reason:
Vesicularia montagnei ‘Christmas Moss’ grows in tiered, triangular shoots that resemble small fir branches. This makes it appear particularly neat and "designed" without being artificial. On roots, stones, or as a moss cushion in the mid-ground, it provides depth, naturalness, and fine details.

It is also a true comfort upgrade for many aquarium inhabitants: shrimp and juvenile fish use it as a hiding place, grazing area, and structural space. With regular care, it remains compact and clean.
