Cryptocoryne walkeri is a plant species belonging to the Aroid genus Cryptocoryne . It is known to occur only in Sri Lanka.
Cryptocoryne walkeri has a more rigid and upright structure than most other Cryptocorynes. It grows to be 12–15 cm with a width of 8 cm. [2]
Cryptocoryne walkeri is considered to be of medium-difficulty to cultivate. It is a slow grower with medium demands as to nutrients and light. Prefers medium lighting along with a pH of 5.0-7.0. Grows well in water that is 20-28C. As with all other Cryptocoryne cultivars, C. walkeri is subject to crypt melt.[ citation needed ]

Porites is a genus of stony coral; they are small polyp stony (SPS) corals. They are characterised by a finger-like morphology. Members of this genus have widely spaced calices, a well-developed wall reticulum and are bilaterally symmetrical. Porites, particularly Porites lutea, often form microatolls. Corals of the genus Porites also often serve as hosts for Christmas tree worms.
Pseudofumaria lutea, the yellow corydalis or rock fumewort, is a short-lived perennial plant in the poppy family Papaveraceae. It is native to the southern foothills of the south-western and central Alps of Italy and Switzerland, but widely introduced elsewhere.
Cryptocoryne beckettii, also known as Beckett's water trumpet, is a plant species belonging to the Araceae genus Cryptocoryne.

Catananche lutea, is a woolly annual plant, in the family Asteraceae, with most leaves in a basal rosette, and some smaller leaves on the stems at the base of the branches. Seated horizontal flowerheads develop early on under the rosette leaves. Later, not or sparingly branching erect stems grow to 8–40 cm high, carrying solitary flowerheads at their tips with a papery involucre whitish to beige, reaching beyond the yellow ligulate florets. Flowers are present between April and June. This plant is unique for the five different types of seed it develops, few larger seeds from the basal flowerheads, which remain in the soil, and smaller seeds from the flowerheads above ground that may be spread by the wind or remain in the flowerhead when it breaks from the dead plant. This phenomenon is known as amphicarpy. The seeds germinate immediately, but in one type, germination is postponed. It naturally occurs around the Mediterranean. Sources in English sometimes refer to this species as yellow succory.
Porites lutea is a species of stony coral in the family Poritidae. It is found growing in very shallow water on reefs in the Indo-Pacific region. It sometimes forms "microatolls" in the intertidal zone and these massive structures have been used to study trends in sea levels and sea water temperature.
Cryptocoryne parva is an aquatic freshwater plant, often grown in aquariums. It is the smallest known member of the genus Cryptocoryne. Native to Sri Lanka, it grows as a small rosette reaching between 5 - 8 cm. Emerse leaves are a little wider than those growing under water. The spathe is c. 1.5 cm.
