Echinodorus macrophyllus is placed in the group of sword plants with ovate leaves, and it is easily distinguished from the rest of the group on the heart-shaped leaf basis. This plant really requires a spacious tank with a nutrient rich substrate and good light conditions. Echinodorus macrophyllus performs best in open aquaria the where it easily grows out of the water and occasionally sets the decorative inflorescence. The leaves of Echinodorus macrophyllus are rather resistant to dry air and warm lamps and leaves remain nice and fresh in normal rooms of low relative humidity. The leaves can be force into submergence if the whole plant is cut down every now and then.
