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.
Easy Red Plant
This beautiful stem plant turns deep scarlet the closer it grows to bright lighting, causing a lovely red-to-green ombre effect. Use medium to high light and Easy Green liquid fertilizer to bring out the best colors.
Plant Transition
Most aquatic plants are grown out of water at the farms. At our warehouse, we start the plant's transition so they can begin growing underwater leaves for you. As you can see, the small, round leaves are grown out of water while the longer, slender leaves are grown under water. This is a normal process, and it's your choice cut off the fading, older leaves or leave them.
We Include Heat Packs and Liners Free of Charge
We have a custom-developed algorithm to include heat packs and insulating plant liners as needed, based on the weather forecast from our warehouse to your shipping address. This helps keep plants at stable temperatures, both in hot and cold weather. Other vendors typically charge you at checkout for a heat pack. We include them when needed free of charge because it's our job to deliver our plants to your door healthy.
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!

Great splash of color
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!

Nice Plant
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.

Great plants
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.

Excellent customer service
Placed and order for my daughters new tank. All the plants that came looked beautiful except one. I quickly sent over a picture and they sent out a new plant immediately. All the plants look lovely in our new tank.

Not sure if they will survive
First batch froze in transit, co-op sent me replacements but they were also a little frozen at the leaves. They are having trouble transitioning to underwater plants and I hope they survive.

Even though there was an unforeseeable shipping delay, causing it to take seven total days (usually I get my product in 2-3 days), my large order of plants arrived healthy as could be. As the weather was below 28°F, I was very concerned they would be DOA. The customer service team responded quickly, effectively, and reassuringly to my multiple emails of panic when I realized there was a freeze coming later in the week right after I placed my order.
