View Full Version : Dwarf Hairgrass
I have been looking to buy Eleocharis parvula (dwarf hairgrass), but so far I haven't been able to find it. Some stores are selling Elocharis acicularis, wich is a taller version of this plant. But the Eleocharis parvula has proven almost impossible to find.
If you know of an online store selling the Eleocharis parvula, please let me know.
Thank you so much.

oh and these guys to: aquarium plants (http://www.aquariumplants.com/). If they don't have it, they probably have every other plant, so it should still prove usefull.

Neither of those sites carry parvula. Nor does AquariumPlants.com. Parvula is an extremely rare, a low-med light grass. The rest are all high-light grass.
Your best bet is http://AquaBid.com

Actually what I have is parvula, Roan! Acicularis is the other dwarf specie that comes out of Florida. Vivipara is another but grows unruly with each strand branching and turns into a tangled glob.

Aqua bid and fellow hobbyists are good way, most vendors are hobbyists as well.

Robert,
I've been to your website many times looking for Dwarf hairgrass, and I've not seen it. I even sent you an e-mail asking if you still carry it, but I got no response. I left it alone and bought a bunch from Aquabid instead.
