Category: Aquarium Plants

Large motherplant, grown in a 9 cm square pot.

The pink underside of the leaves of Alternanthera reineckii 'Pink' provides an effective contrast to the many green plants in an aquarium - particularly when planted in groups. Stems becomes 25-50 cm tall.

Good light encourages the leaves to turn red. Easy to propagate by nipping off the terminal bud and planting it in the substrate. This also makes the mother plant more bushy, because more side shoots are formed.
Alternanthera reineckii 'Pink'  originated in South America.

Scarlett ★★★★★

The pink undersides are even more striking in person than in the photos, and the motherplant came with a solid root system that made planting a breeze.

Abigail V. ★★★★★

The leaves arrived healthy and well-rooted in the 9 cm pot, making it easy to plant. I love how the pink underside creates a striking contrast against my green Amazon swords.

Avery ★★★★★

The pink underside really pops against my green stems, and the 9 cm pot was packed with healthy roots from day one. It settled in within a week and is already pushing out new leaves, no melt at all.
