Description

Common Name: Barclaya Longifolia

Barclaya is a rather uncommon bulbaceous aquatic plant.  Its long red leaves can grow into a large and stunning specimen when planted along with green stem and carpet plants.  Under high light and with the addition of CO2 and fertilizers, the leaves can get a deep maroon red color.  Although it can grow in lower light, the leaves tend to be drabber and will turn bronze colored.
