Ludwigia Ovalis (Bunch)

This species, Ludwigia ovalis, is an attractive and resilient stem plant that adds vibrant colors to aquariums without demanding extensive care. It thrives in moderate lighting conditions, showcasing hues of red, pink, or orange in low-tech setups. While it can flourish without CO2 supplementation, adding it can enhance growth and coloration. Regular trimming and replanting support its growth. Although snail presence is possible, its benefits, including providing cover for fry and attaching to various surfaces, outweigh this concern. With temperature ranging from 64° to 82° F (18° to 28° C) and a pH of 5.0 to 7.0, it's adaptable to diverse environments. With a potential height of around 8 inches (20 cm), it suits middle to background placement in aquariums. Overall, it's an easy-to-care-for plant with a fast growth rate, originating from Southeast Asia and cultivated in nurseries.

Great for tanks and those outdoor tubs!
