📍Placement
Background or midground stem plant. Groups of 5 plus stems create the best visual impact.
📝Care notes
Beautiful red orange foliage that intensifies with high light levels. One of the most popular stem plants for adding warm colour contrast in aquascapes. Easy to propagate from cuttings repeatedly.
🧪Fertilisation
Weekly macro and micro dosing
⏰Schedule
Weekly EI dosing for both macros and micros. Additional iron supplementation helps intensify the red colour dramatically.
✂️Propagation
Cut stems below a node and replant. Trim and replant cuttings regularly for a bushy and dense appearance.
