Ludwigia Sp. Mini Super Red

They might be a smaller species than most Ludwigias, but they make it up for it through their striking red colour, which is ideal for middle or background aquascape.

The mini super red is known to thrive under medium lighting but for it to reach its full potential of complete, intense red colouration, it is advised to use higher lighting as well as optimal supplementation.

 Known as Ludwigia Mini Super Red, this colourful aquatic trailing plant came from the Onagraceae family and the Ludwigia genus. It is very similar to Ludwigia “Rubin” except that the mini super red has smaller, and thinner leaves.

It has small, pointed, and rounded leaves that grow alternately opposite throughout its stem. This prolific growing plant produces side shoots that can be replanted. They can grow as high as 6 inches or 15cms., sometimes even taller.

The super red Ludwigia is very easy to care for and is undemanding. With the proper care, it can flourish, especially since it can ramify well and can display prolific growth in ideal conditions.

While it does not need CO2 supplementation to survive, it will achieve its optimal growth and potential when carbon dioxide supplementation is used.

Postage:

Plant will be packed in a plastic bag inside carton box (usually large letter) posted by Royal Mail which will reduce the cost of postage. We spend more time on packing plants which ensures that you receive the plants in a very good condition, not damaged by the pot or not mixed with gel (in-vitro).  Therefore, the plants are sent without the pot.
