What's the adult name for "Jungle Veil?" I never heard of it.
Jungle Val or Giant Val? Vallisneria gigantea? If so, it is a real plant, and a large one. Leaves will get to 6' easily and runners will have offsets constantly if the plant is happy. It does need some feeding, substrate at least, but if you allow a large stand to develop you will likely need water column additions as well, especially in moderate to strong light.
