| Found in the central catchment area of Singapore, part of the habitat of Cryptocoryne griffithii was a close shave to destruction, paving way for new development meant for nature appreciation. The water is of average flow with the plants growing in clusters in a mixture of sand, pebbles and muddy substrate. Some are growing among thick iron deposits.
