Amazon swords are one of the oldest-kept plants in the hobby, loved for their ease of care and ability to tolerate a wide range of conditions. They have long, broad leaves with a pointed end that come in bright green to dark green colors. This monster plant can grow 20 inches tall or more, making them a great background plant for larger aquariums or centerpiece for small aquariums.

How to Plant Amazon Sword in Aquarium

1. Remove the potted plant from plastic basket, and split the rock wool in half.
2. Carefully remove the plant roots from the rock wool, and make sure to remove all the small, yellow fertilizer balls. Wash off any remaining debris.
3. Use planting tweezers or your fingers to push the roots of the sword deeply into the substrate until they are completely buried. Pull out the plant slightly so that the crown (i.e., the base of the plant where all the leaves come out) is not covered with substrate.
4. If the plant keeps popping out of the ground, try inserting the plant at an angle or wrap a plant weight at the bottom of the plant to keep it anchored.
5. Make sure to add lots of root tabs if you’re using inert substrate or if your nutrient-rich substrate is depleted.

How to Care for Amazon Sword Plant

— Amazon sword care is very easy, so start by using low to medium lighting between 10-35 PAR. 
— Why is my new sword plant melting? Sword plants are sometimes known to experience melting when they suddenly move to a new environment. To help the plant recover faster and grow new leaves that are accustomed to your water parameters, leave the roots planted in the ground and make sure to provide nutrient-rich planted tank substrate or Easy Root Tabs
— Why is my Amazon sword turning brown after it was growing so well? Sword plants absorb lots of nutrients from the ground, so it may be a nutrient deficiency. If the larger, outer leaves are yellowing and dying after a couple of months, please add more root tabs.
— How to trim Amazon sword: If the sword plant has dying or melting leaves, cut them off at the base of the leaf.
— Note: Bristlenose plecos and other plecos have been known to eat sword plants, so watch out for this if you see holes in the leaves.

How to Propagate Amazon Sword

Sword plants reproduce by sending out a horizontal runner with a little plantlet at the end. The plantlet will sprout its own leaves and roots that grow into the ground. You can cut off the plantlet and re-plant it in a different location.

Budget friendly satin pillowcase
Size: Standard (20" X 26"), Color: 18 - Lavender, Number of Items: 2
This satin pillowcase is a great budget-friendly option! While it’s not quite as luxurious as my Blissy pillowcase, it still does a really nice job—especially for the price. It has that smooth, silky feel that helps reduce hair frizz and feels gentle on the skin. It’s also easy to wash and holds up well, which is perfect for everyday use. I especially love using these for the kids—they get the benefits of a softer pillowcase without worrying about ruining a more expensive one. Overall, it’s a solid, affordable alternative that still feels nice and does the job. Great value and perfect for families!

These pillowcases are honestly a great purchase. They feel incredibly smooth and soft and I noticed a real difference in both my hair and skin! my hair is less frizzy in the morning, and my skin feels softer. The quality is excellent for the price, and they’ve held up well after several washes without losing their softness or color. They also feel cool and comfortable throughout the night, which is a nice bonus. Overall, I’m really happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade their sleep experience!

A must have for sensitive skin
Size: Standard (20" X 26"), Color: 20 - Moss, Number of Items: 2
I am now on my second set of these pillowcases, and I can’t recommend them enough. I have extreme skin sensitivities; anything even slightly rough against my face will give me a rash. These are incredibly smooth and have been a total game-changer for my skin. I love them so much that I actually travel with one to put over hotel pillows whenever I’m away from home. The best part? I didn’t want to pay a fortune or deal with "hand-wash only" items. I throw these in the washer and they come out perfectly every time. They maintain their color and don’t lose that elegant sheen.
