Echinodorus 'Reni' Tropica (عبوة مفردة)

Planted this in the midground a few weeks ago and the reddish-brown new leaves have really started to pop against the green. It stays compact enough at 15-25 cm wide to not crowd out my other plants. Definitely adds a nice color contrast without taking over the tank.

The size was exactly what I needed for my midground — at 15-25 cm wide, it fills the space without taking over. I’ve had it a week and the new leaves already show that deep reddish-brown color.

The reddish-brown new leaves really pop against my green background plants, and the rosette stays compact even in my 20-gallon tank. It’s been about three weeks and it’s already sending out a runner, which I didn’t expect from such a small species.
