I got the Motto grass from PJ Pets in Richmond.... It is from the Aqua Flora Nurseries, a BC company... That stuff is growing so fast..... You kind find it anywhere they sell the products... They come in the plastic tubs... I paid about 10 bucks a bucket..... Well worth it for sure.... The Cuban Moss also came from them... Here is the site if you want more info.....
AquaFlora - Nurseries & Micropropagation
I will post some pictures of the plants some time tonight, have to work and all..... Some of them I need help telling what they are... hahahaha.....27 g planted
