Ludwigia inclinata 'Red' is a stunning, soft-leaved plant that can add a pop of colour to any aquarium. Its wavy, bright red leaves are particularly striking against the greenery of other aquatic plants, and can create a beautiful contrast. It is native to South America and is part of the Onagraceae family.

While Ludwigia inclinata 'Red' is a relatively demanding plant, it is often underrated in the aquarium hobby despite its stunning appearance. It has dense, branching growth and can become very bushy with trimming. The large, veined leaves also become highly wavy in optimal conditions. This plant is quite adaptable, but to get the most vibrant colour from the leaves, it needs high lighting and additional CO2. It is a fast grower, which makes it great for aquascaping and creating a natural-looking environment in your aquarium.

Ludwigia inclinata 'Red' is a broad-leafed form of Ludwigia inclinata, which is a highly variable species. It is an excellent plant for aquascaping enthusiasts who want to add some colour and variety to their aquarium. With proper care and maintenance, this plant will provide a vibrant and eye-catching addition to your aquatic environment.
