Requires Aqua Soil Not required, but recommended
Type Stem
Max Height 10-20"
Placement Midground to background
Light Level Moderate to High (approx. 50-100 PAR)

Other Also available Potted. High iron content brings out the deepest red/pink tones.

Care & Planting: Remove the lead weight/foam from the stems and plant each stem individually into substrate.

A note on appearance: Many stem plants, including this one, are harvested in their above-water (emersed) form, and the photo may not reflect how it looks once fully adjusted to life underwater. Leaf shape and coloration commonly shift as the plant transitions to submersed growth — don't be surprised if new growth looks different from what arrived in your order. Give it a few weeks to acclimate before judging its final look.
