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.
Unfortunately, these plants just didn’t work out for me, they couldn’t survive being shipped down south, BUT- the customer service was TOP TEIR! Immediately upon my initial concern about my plants I was sent a replacement, and when that one didn’t work out either I was offered a refund or store credit.
I would absolutely buy from aquarium co-op again, just maybe not plants for me.

First bad order
Repens plant. Wanted a red plant. Every leaf was off. The stems were brown, shriveled, and broken. I tried to plant the stems with roots, but in 24 hours they have totally disintegrated. First bad order I have ever received. All others orders have been great. But, I might start buying plants locally so they don’t die in transit.

Tall and colorful
These came in excellent condition. This is a very hearty stem plant and would do very well in my tank if not for my two Koi that likes to eat the leaves and won't leave them planted. Even after a month of their abuse they are still living. I will order more after my Koi go to their new home this summer.

Died twice
I’ve purchased this plant twice, and both times it has died despite following all instructions and correct care. None of the other plants I purchased along with it died, they all did great. Pretty frustrating

Not what I expected;
The plants just couldn’t survive shipping. Could be the weird Southern US weather. GREAT customer service, however. Don’t feel discouraged from buying— Customer service immediately offered a replacement, refund, or store credit, so I really can’t complain much.
