Features elongated, narrow leaves that can vary in color from green to shades of red and pink, particularly when exposed to high light levels. The leaves grow in an alternating pattern along the stem and can reach heights of around 12-24 inches, making it suitable for midground or background placement in aquascapes. Thrives in warm water conditions, preferring temperatures between 72-82°F and a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5. It flourishes best in moderate to high lighting, where its vibrant colors can truly shine. Adding CO₂ supplementation can significantly enhance its growth rate and overall health, although it can adapt to lower CO₂ levels as well. Propagation is typically achieved through stem cuttings, where healthy stems can be trimmed and replanted to create new plants. Regular trimming will encourage bushier growth and prevent the plant from becoming leggy.
