Red flame sword is a very impactful aquarium plant that is easy to grow. It can have green, red, or bronze-colored leaves, creating an interesting and eye-catching spotted pattern. Medium lighting or higher would be ideal for this plant to thrive. Red flame sword plants can get quite large if left untrimmed and therefore look impressive as a background plant in larger aquariums or even a center piece plant in nano tanks.
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.
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 rounded leaves are grown out of water while the more 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.
How We Grow and Store Our Plants
We store all of our plants in aquariums with plenty of light and fertilizer to start converting their leaves. This picture is from our warehouse. Not all vendors store their plants in water; many store them out of water in bags straight from the farms. This is more time without light and doesn't give them a head start in growing underwater leaves.
Ordered in dead of winter, arrived healthy with plenty of heat packs. 10/10 will order again

I am absolutely in love with the red flame sword! I need another one for our 55 gallon tank. It was nearly package with plenty of moisture and heat packs since we live in an area that is cold.
