    Default Cabomba carolina compact cultivar out there yet?

    I love the look of the Carolina Fanwort but it's 20" is too much for my tank and I am not a big fan of constant pruning. So, have they gotten around to a compact version yet like they did with the Amazon sword?

    I think that Koi Kameon is looking for a variety of Cabomba that remains small and grows slowly.

    I don't know any Cabomba that has these characteristics.

    No cabomba like that as of yet and considering its a stem plant it probably would never be something possible.

    If you wanted a plant that status bushy but grows slower you might want to try neasae 'gold'

    May be prunning can help, but I am unsure if it would be able to provide the compact look.
    Bratyboy2 :- can you provide a link of the plant you have mentioned please?
    Thanks
