Alternanthera reineckii . Roseafolia - Family ... Amaranthaceae

from: £4.29 · scroll down to shop

Alternanthera species are usually difficult aquarium plants. However, these plants are grown from seedlings and in our experience this plant is well adapted to the environmental conditions of the aquarium. It is easily reproduced in the aquarium by cuttings which are replanted in the substrate. The lower leaf side of Alternanthera reineckii Roseafolia is violet and this creates a beautiful contrast to the green plants in the aquarium. It requires, however, relatively high light to maintain a vigorous violet colour. In the open top aquarium Alternanthera reineckii Roseafolia likes to pierce the water level and this adds to the applicability of the plant.

These plant are recognised as some of the most beautiful and robust aquarium plant on the market. Over 150 different varieties are normally available for freshly harvested delivery.
