Aponogeton bruggenii

Leaves 10-30cm long, primarily floating; the plants survive in the soil and in June, the beginning of the rainy season, floating leaves again sprout from the bulb again. In October, the rice paddies to dry out and the plants drawing their leaves. From July to September it comes into flower. The individual flower heads hold 10-15 days.

During a two-year observation period at the nature and location of the aquarium could not be observed to set fruit despite many attempts.

Vegetative propagation is through the formation of daughter tubers. From each tuber several shoots arise which themselves form new tubers. By working the rice fields, the tubers are separated and spread in the field.

In vegetative culativation since 1992 in the Botanical Garden of Shivaji University in Kolhapur (Maharashtra)it grows both in the Indian garden soil, as well as in sandy substrate well.

Without a dry season, with constant emerse culture it does poorly. Good growth is observed only during the rainy season. The plants bloom in culture occasionally from June to October. Spontaneous seed set was observed. The van Bruggen flowered plants exported to the Netherlands to 1995 (described by Yadav 1995).

The plants can be divided into shallow aquarium with a water level of about 15 to 20 cm in well. The floating leaves remain a long time. Unfortunately, the proliferation rate in culture is very low. Not every tuber manages to divide each year. Fertilization of the substrate is necessary. (Merrily lifted, with great thanks, from http://www.heimbiotop.de/aponogeton.html#brug)
