Ludwigia glandulosa Tropica

Took a while to get established in my tank, but now it’s adding a really nice deep green contrast against my lighter plants. The leaves are definitely on the wider side compared to my other stems, which gives it a nice full look. It’s slow growing like described, but totally worth the patience with

The red tones on the leaves are unreal under my tank lights, and the 15-40 cm stem height fits perfectly in the background of my 20-gallon. It’s slow, so I don’t have to trim every week, but it really does need that CO2 to stay vibrant.

The deep green leaves on these stems are exactly what my aquascape needed, and they've held their color beautifully even under my LEDs. I was worried about the slow growth at first, but adding CO2 really made them take off.
