Product Description

By entering your model number, you can make sure that this fits.

You will receive a single bunch of five Parrot Feather Plants. Cuttings of the plant are sent out.

This is a fantastic marginal plant for ponds.

The lushly textured foliage of Parrot's Feather contributes to the pond's and fish's shade.

For the pond's inhabitants, it provides a hiding place as well as spawning material.

Parrot's Feather can be used in the crevices of waterfalls and along the edges of ponds.

Questions & Answers

Is it okay to just throw the stems in the pond or do I need to plant them in a media?

Perhaps I should have planted in a news organization. They didn't grow in the pond after I tossed them in. To be honest, they died and did not thrive when they arrived. I hope this information was useful.

Will they be able to make it through the winter in Zone 5?

If you live in zone 5, you must bring them inside because they may freeze and die.

If the anchor clip isn't removed, will it continue to grow?

There's no need to remove it because if you don't secure it with a clip, it'll float away.

Will these, like water lettuce, remove algae from the pond?

The water in my sunniest water garden is clear (no green water), but there is still sting algae on the rocks and liner, which I plan to treat with D-ionized water. For that issue, you'll need to find a solution. Parrot feathers, on the other hand, are quite invasive.

Selected User Reviews For Parrot Feather Bunch - 5 Stem Plants - Water Garden Live Pond Plant

Scorned a total of two times

3/5

The plant was delivered in a sealed bag that appeared to be vacuumed tight for our first order of this product. The bag contained little to no water, as well as what appeared to be burnt foliage. The second package, which was a replacement, arrived in an airtight bag. The bag was only partially inflated with air and contained little to no water. Although the stem was green, many of the leaves appeared to be burnt and worn. In these conditions, neither package lasted more than a day.

Very well done! This parrot feather is absolutely gorgeous! It did, however, arrive in an unsatisfactory condition

5/5

It held up well after being transported in a mail truck in 90-degree Florida heat. My order arrived with twice the amount specified, and when I returned it to the water, it perked right up and added a nice little touch to my already existing hornwort plant, which floats just beneath the surface. My purchase has made me extremely happy!.

Arrived on the verge of passing out

3/5

I was going to give it a one-star rating because the Parrots Feather was practically dead when it arrived. I've grown a lot of this plant and am familiar with its appearance. Green. The majority of this material was yellow in color. The rest of the room was grey (dead). br>br>As I was writing this review, I noticed that the otherwise dead stems are sprouting tiny new growths. It wasn't a total loss, but it wasn't the quality I had hoped for. br>br>If yours arrive dead- ish, immediately submerge them in water, and hope for the best; Parrots Feather is a hardy and prolific grower.

Parrot feather chinsey stems in unusual packaging were nearly extinct

3/5

When introduced to the pond, the majority of the stems, which were barely 6" long, died back, but the last swirls of leaves survived. What is currently growing on straggly stems. br>I'm afraid to pull them out of the crevice I tucked them into at first because I'm afraid they don't have enough rootstock. br>br>Save money buy pre-potted gihvandy Instead, choose a tree with deep roots. br>That parrot feather didn't have any die-cut holes in it. in the past a larger serving size.

I immediately started working on my water garden, and I'll keep an eye on it to see if it improves over time

3/5

These are something I'm not sure about. I just got them in the mail yesterday, and they look awful. I immediately started working on my water garden, and I'll keep an eye on it to see if it improves over time. I'm crossing all of my fingers!.

Update

5/5

I couldn't seem to locate my previous review, but I wanted to double-check that it had been updated. Victor responded quickly and stated that he would send a replacement. It wasn't their fault; the mailman had left it in a post office box in the sweltering heat of Texas. Victor was kind enough to replace the item, and I'm looking forward to seeing them flourish in my pond. The others are doing well and recommend this company because of its honesty, helpfulness, and understanding.

Not at all what I had anticipated

3/5

As stated, there are five tiny "cuttings," but they are oh so tiny, and two of them already appear to be dead. Even if you don't put them in water, one of them might grow something. It's still too early to say whether it will live or die. br>Update: None of them grew up or lived to see another day. It was a waste of money.

IMPRESSED BUT NOT OVERWHELMED

3/5

When the plants arrived, the box was a little crushed on the ends, but not completely. That was a couple weeks ago when I unwrapped it and placed it in my pond. They don't seem to care whether or not they grow!.
