A stunning aquatic plant known for its intense red coloration, which adds a vibrant contrast to freshwater aquariums. This variety of Ludwigia palustris features small, rounded leaves that grow densely along the stems. The leaves range from bright red to deep crimson, with their color intensifying under high lighting and nutrient-rich conditions. This fast-growing species can reach up to 12-20 inches in height, making it ideal for midground or background placement in tanks. It thrives in temperatures of 68-82°F with a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5, preferring soft to moderately hard water. While does not require CO₂ supplementation, adding CO₂ will enhance its growth rate and deepen its red hues. Propagation is simple, as new plants can be grown from cuttings taken from healthy stems. Regular trimming is recommended to encourage bushier growth and prevent it from overshadowing other plants, making it an eye-catching addition to a well-lit aquarium.
