It's one bunch, but the size is quite large. Mine looks like it did brown a bit on the leaves edges either in transit or previously, but has been doing great otherwise. Hasn't fully recovered yet, but should do so hopefully soon.

Plants have been in the tank for just over a week and already there's new growth. Great plant

Awesome specimens! Planted tanks are certainly the natural way to go.

It arrived quickly and in great condition! I’ve just started my first tank, it’s been in there for a couple of days, and is doing wonderful!

Like this plant, but a small section was browning on arrival. Otherwise very large quality and would buy again!

I purchased two of these beauties. One was in better condition than the other, as one was a bit brown and wilty. Still lovely additions to my tank.

Salvinia cuculatta arrived in great shape. It is an unusual plant, tight leaf structure, thick,shortened roots. It seems to be thriving, no die off after a few weeks in tank. I may buy some for another tank!

I have bought plants from several sites, and the ones from Buce are always healthy.

Upon arrival, they had already started browning. I pulled off the ones that were brown along the edges and still put it in my aquarium. I’ve seen several other people say that it spreads very quickly which is why I got it. However, we’re at about a week and no growth. Either I’m being impatient or they’re dying from stress or whatever in shipping. I don’t know. I’m still gonna wait and see and pray that they’re ok.

Quick shipping; I ordered on a Saturday night & got this Tuesday morning. I ordered red root floaters as well. I live in Michigan & even sitting in the cold for about an hour, both plants are doing well. My betta fish is in love with this plant.

came in with blackened roots, not sure if that is normal. didn't do well and i guess it just got outcompeted by salvinia minima because i dont see any left in my tank. i think i got a bad specimen, it just never seemed healthy, maybe i didn't give it enough light i don't know

First time getting the Salvinia and I am ordering more luv the look the color and shape of the leaves. Worked great floating around the top of my tank.

The internet said this would be a beginner friendly floating plant. I’d have to disagree as it quickly died after placing in my tank

Really good BIG specimens, healthy and growing fast, I definitely did not need to order two. But they are gorgeous and I am pleased.

Most of them didn’t make it. I don’t know if it was my fault or the plants. I’m newer to the hobby so it could’ve been me. I bough 4 of them and only have two left it the tank. The other two basically flipped upside down.
