“A very beautiful echinodorus that looks powerful. It has lovely red-brown leaves that become greener as they get older and they also get a slightly different shape. What is especially beautiful about the leaves, is that they get beautiful light green veins in the leaf. It is an easy plant that can tolerate both hard as soft water. However it does need plenty of light and rather some nutrition. It is not an overbearing plant. It does not overrun. It easily and quickly becomes 25 cm high and rather wide, but after that it will remain like this for a long period. Therefore it is very suitable as solitary plant. ”
