Description
Description
Ludwigia palustris 'Super Red', usually just called Super Red in the hobby, is a compact red stem plant with small leaves that hold a deep red on both the top and underside. Its leaf is noticeably smaller than the better known Ludwigia repens 'Super Red', which gives it a finer, more delicate look. It sits well in the midground to background where a splash of red draws the eye.
Each stem reaches roughly 10 to 30cm and turns bushy from regular trimming, as the cut tops push out side shoots that fill in and thicken the group. The stems also regenerate their own roots, so trimmed tops can be replanted to build a fuller stand. It keeps its colour readily and rewards strong light, with a little CO2 helping the reds deepen further.

Our plants are harvested fresh and algae free. Conversion to the submerged form starts in our grow-out tanks, which maximises success once it settles into your aquarium.
Submerged: the growth form that lives fully underwater, which is how the plant grows once established in your tank. Emersed: the growth form grown above the waterline with leaves in the air, common during propagation before the plant transitions to underwater growth.
