I`m over the moon , why?
I was desperate to acquire some Pogostomon Helferi a few months ago, much to my disappointment I could not source any locally, what made it  bitter to swallow is that I had this beautifull plant in abundance before & had shared it via sales trades etc.. While in Toronto with 2 fellow hobbyist  a few months ago I stumbled on some at Lucky`s aquarium , but was not impressed as it was pitiful looking & going yellow, nevertheless I took a chance & bought one pot , fortunately it paid off, hence I`m over the moon  ;D  :P

Those are some nice healthy looking plants Errol. I remember when you bought those sad looking things, sometimes taking a chance pays off. I'm regretting not picking up the mini pellia we saw.

That's gorgeous. Are you supplementing iron in the water? And what light level do you have over them? Good on you.

Gorgeous Errol!
I remember buying this plant from Toss, he used to pull it out
by the handfuls as well.

@Rah, will have  some available soon( Robert has dibs too  ;))
@ sas, yes Toss was the person that brought it from TO we both shared the loot  :)
@ Greg, no extra  iron supplement , regular traces dosed as per the EI method
I agree guys , it`s a nice plant & one of my favorites, hence I was bummed out when I lost it & could not source it locally.
