About This Plant
E. grisebachii 'Bleherae' Compacta has all the attributes of a regular Amazon sword, plus the added benefit of being smaller in size. The dwarf Amazon sword plant was created at Florida Aquatic Nurseries by constantly selecting smaller, vigorous plants until we found the ideal candidate. E. grisebachii 'Bleherae' Compacta can be used in the foreground areas of a large aquarium or midground areas of the aquarium. E. grisebachii 'Bleherae' Compacta looks exactly like an Amazon sword and thrives in all the same conditions. High leaf counts and a size of 6 inches fully mature makes E. grisebachii 'Bleherae' Compacta a great choice for smaller aquariums. Dwarf Amazon Sword Plants are a great choice for beginners.
