Check your extended forecast and consider the weather before bidding. Please read entire auction and updated Just Me before bidding. Shipping to contiguous 48 states only, (CONUS, not AK, HI, or PR). Tips for a Successful Transaction Read all the information the seller provides so you can make a smart decision. Sometimes there cannot be a TL;DR. If you still have questions after reading everything, or have any special requests, ask before bidding. What you want may not be possible. Check your email, including spam. It's our only means of contacting you. Read the entire email, the last sentence may be a question. Not replying can delay shipment. If you are having trouble receiving emails, you can see messages sent to you through the AquaBid messaging system by going HERE and entering your Username and Password. Make sure the email and physical addresses on file with AquaBid and PayPal are up to date and correct. Check your 10 day weather forecast. Most problems are caused by temperature extremes, both hot and cold. The seller cannot make the package arrive on a certain day. Priority Mail doesn't have a guaranteed delivery date, it usually takes 2 or 3 days to arrive but may take longer. Mini Bolbitis This is a dwarf form of Bolbitis with a leaf form just like Bolbitis heudelotti and I believe it is B. heudelotti 'Small Form'. From the rhizome to leaf tip averages only 2" to 3" on typical growth up to a maximum of about 4". I have read that it can reach 6" but that has not been my experience, maybe they mean high tech. The fern-like leaf form is lovely but the vivid green when light shines through the satiny translucent leaves is what makes this plant a favorite of mine. You have the CHOICE of what is shown in photo *A* or *B*. If you use Buy it Now you will receive BOTH. � � � The photos below show a mature clump so you can get an idea of what to expect. The rhizomes adhere very well to wood or rock. Below is on a little piece of Mopani. � � This end received good water circulation and light. � � This end was in a corner and got much less light and very little circulation. � � The leaves look shimmery like satin ribbon when the light hits them just right. � � This is a nano plant. If you are looking for a big bold plant for your 55G tank, this probably isn't for you. Leaf size is average, typical of when it is grow low tech in a clump. If you want to cover a larger area either can be divided right away. If you want it to stay super compact, leave it alone and the crowding should help. But you have hard water. You did your research and everything says it needs soft water. The only thing I have noticed it needs is water movement but I don't have hard water. A previous customer with hard water gave this plant a try and kindly wrote to say her plants were doing quite well with "Lots of new growth on all of the pieces." in only 10 days. Thank you Melanie for the update. � :) � Honestly, I think the soft water requirement is just one of those things people read and repeat. Once established this plant is easy and I was pleasantly surprised that it had a reasonable growth rate even without ferts. And unlike regular B. heudelotti, it STAYS VERY COMPACT! It doesn't take years to spread and fill in. It has grown best for me with good water movement so avoid stagnant corners. This is not what is being offered by other sellers (here and on ebay) which has more finely divided leaves and growth slower than plate techtonics (Bolbitis heteroclita cuspidata? Bolbitis heteroclita difformis?). I feel this is a much more graceful plant than those which remind me of carrot or parsley leaves. Don't know why this remains so rare, it's an awesome plant. � Questions? Click for email. � Term details are on my Just Me page which was updated October 19th, 2015. Read it before bidding. Payment is through PayPal only (you do not need an account, just a credit card), no e-checks. When paying with PayPal, you must use a shipping address, my account is configured to only accept PayPal Confirmed Addresses and I only ship to the address given in PayPal. Priority Mail shipping is $6.45, just the postage for a Small Flat Rate box. The plant will be in water (for frost resistance) and I will use some newspaper for insulation but there is no room for styro or heat/ice so no shipping to locations with lows ≤25F or highs ≥90F. �Shipping will be delayed if it's ≤25F at the origin airport. If you want true cold weather shipping the cost will be higher so email for costs before bidding. I ship to PO Boxes if it's a PayPal Confirmed Address. Local pickup can be arranged at 462 Washington St Woburn MA 01801, weekdays, late afternoon. LAG for 3 days if >25F and <90F. Some of my other auctions may be combined with this for savings on shipping costs. � Thanks for looking and GOOD LUCK!
