Choose Your Quantity:

Plant each stem individually in the substrate, leaving a little space between them. Regular trimming encourages fuller, bushier growth, and healthy trimmings can be replanted.

Care Information:

• Care Level: Easy to moderate
• Lighting: Medium to high
• Placement: Midground or background
• Growth Rate: Moderate to fast
• CO₂: Not required, but beneficial

Stronger lighting and consistent nutrients help encourage healthy growth and richer red coloration.

Beneficial Items Available in Our Shop:

• Root Tabs: Provide nutrients through the substrate and are especially helpful when using sand, gravel, or another nutrient-poor substrate.
• Plant Weights: Help keep freshly planted stems securely anchored while they develop roots and become established.

Please Note: These plants are grown emersed, with their leaves above water. After being placed in an aquarium, some original leaves may soften, melt, or fall off as the plant adapts to submerged growth. This transition is normal. Healthy new underwater leaves will develop as the stems become established in your aquarium.
