🌿 Ludwigia Repens Rubin (Ludwigia repens 'Rubin')

Deep Ruby-Red Leaves • Fast-Growing, Upright Stem Plant • A Bold Red Background Feature

 

📋 Ludwigia Repens Rubin is a stunning red stem plant with broad, rounded leaves that glow in deep ruby-red tones, richer than standard Ludwigia repens. Its strong, upright stems grow quickly into dense, vibrant bushes, making it a bold background feature that contrasts brilliantly with green plants. It's a favourite for Dutch-style aquascapes, colourful community tanks and planted display aquariums.

It's fast-growing and easy to keep. Give it good light and steady nutrients, with CO2 if you have it, and trim it regularly; replanted tops quickly fill out into a thick, glowing ruby-red stand.

It's a freshwater plant, suited to freshwater aquariums.
