- Green and red leaves with an oblong shape
- Tall background or floating stem plant
- Great for medium to high light planted tanks
Ludwigia Red is a lovely stem plant that can grow both green and red oblong-shaped leaves. In high lighting, the leaves at the top of the plant start growing pinkish-red to deep red, creating a unique ombre effect. Give it plenty of light and liquid fertilizer for faster growth and vibrant coloration.

Looks great ant the costumer service is un matched
This plant came in good condition. I love the tops of it with the reddish colors. So far it's been able to withstand my 2 Koi who have a habit of destroying plants especially stem plants. These are very tall and are great as a background. I'm sure they will do better once my Koi go to their new home as they do keep uprooting them.
This plant has, so far, adjusted perfectly in my tank. The plant I was sent was already pretty tall, maybe like 5-6 inches, so that was instantly satisfying to plant. My fish (assorted platies) do love it because they’re always weaving in the leaves. I planted it around a sunken broken pottery tunnel decoration and it is now my favorite corner of my tank! Looking forward to seeing how tall it will get and hope it continues to thrive as the weeks go by! I might even get more of this to plant in other areas because my fish seem to like the smaller leaves on this more than the various swords I have elsewhere.
Updating my review to include a picture I just took - when I first planted these, all of the stalks were shorter than the sunken pot behind it. More than half have grown another 4-5 inches in the last 2.5-3 weeks!
I love floating this! It grows pretty fast for me. I've already been able to locally sell some of my starts I've grown from it!
Arrived great! Normal amount of melting for me.
Excellent plant fast shipping the best plants I’ve ever purchased
I got these so I would have something that wasn’t just green. I had read about how some red plants can be tricky and was a little hesitant. Decided to give these a go because it had a nice little splash of red on them and they have been great! They arrived in great condition and have been growing nicely!
This is a nice addiction to my tank. It's growing fast thanks to the plant food.
Plant arrived small and sickly, it lost almost all of its leaves in the 2 days it was in shipment, and every one of its stems broke. I don’t think it was the fault of the seller, the plant was packaged nicely. I just think this plant might not ship well.
This was my first order from aquarium co-op and I will be ordering again. The Ludwigia came in looking great and has taken well in my tank. My order was packed so well and got to me with the heat pack still warm. I also ordered pogo stellatus and an Amazon sword and they were amazing as well.
