Emerged Growth

This live Red Skeleton Ludwigia is a variegated aquatic stem plant featuring red stems, red leaf undersides and green upper leaves marked by yellow veins. Aquarium Plants Factory supplies approximately six fresh-cut stems for a midground or background group in planted freshwater aquariums.

The plant is rated advanced because its variegated tissue needs stable care and high light to develop the pronounced red color and skeleton-like veining. It grows at a medium rate in substrate, accepts both root and water-column nutrients and can also grow emersed.

Key Features

  • Stable variegation produces yellow-veined green leaves above red stems and leaf undersides.
  • High light strengthens the red color and visible skeleton pattern.
  • Fresh-cut, weighted bunch and net-pot formats each contain about six stems.
  • Stem-top cuttings can be trimmed and replanted for propagation.
