Sweet osmanthus is found throughout Southeast Asia and the flower is commonly used in China to sweeten tea. Instead of deep brown tones, the osmanthus leaves are lighter, adding a new element of colour to leaf litter in a blackwater aquarium.
They also make a great supplement food source through biofilm development, perfect for shrimp, fry and bottom dwellers. Osmanthus leaves will release a fair amount of tannins into the water but nothing compared to the likes of Logan leaves, however, they will certainly add diversity to your blackwater aquarium.
Tannins Released: Low
All our leaves are organically sourced, and free from harmful pesticides.
Our leaves are cosmetically varied and as nature intended, flaws and all. Colour, shape, size and appearance will vary throughout.
