Jungle Vallisneria

Jungle Vallisneria, commonly referred to as Jungle Val, is a resilient and rapidly growing freshwater plant characterized by its ribbon-like leaves. This species of tape grass is highly sought after for aquariums and ponds due to its exceptional ability to oxygenate water, making it an ideal choice for both novice and experienced aquarists. Its adaptability to various environmental conditions allows it to thrive with minimal maintenance, providing a lush, natural aesthetic that enhances any aquatic landscape.

One of the standout features of Jungle Vallisneria is its role in improving water quality. Through the process of photosynthesis, it releases oxygen, which is vital for the health of aquatic life. Additionally, this plant acts as a natural filter by absorbing excess nutrients, such as nitrates, thereby helping to control algae growth and maintain a balanced ecosystem.

Beyond its functional benefits, Jungle Vallisneria contributes significantly to the habitat within an aquarium or pond. Its tall, vibrant green leaves create dense underwater “forests” that offer shelter and breeding grounds for fish and fry. The graceful movement of its foliage adds height and visual interest, making it a popular choice for enhancing the overall beauty of aquatic environments.

 

The leaves can grow to around 2 feet in length.

The table below shows the estimated shipping and pick-up weeks for destinations to USA states. These dates can change depending on weather and how strong the plants are at that time.

For example, a wet spring will have many clouds leading to less sunshine. Thus, the plants may need a bit longer to grow strong enough for transplanting and transit. With the planet heating up, a warm spring may help the plants grow strong enough to ship before the dates in this table.
