🌿 Rotala Green (Rotala sp. 'Green')

Bright, Fresh-Green Stem Plant • Fine Leaves and Bushy Growth • A Lush Green Backdrop

 

📋 Rotala Green is a fast-growing stem plant with fine, bright-green leaves that stay fresh and vivid even under strong lighting. Planted in a group, its slender stems grow into a dense, bushy wall of green that gives the background real depth and makes red plants stand out beside it. It's a favourite in Dutch-style aquascapes, nature layouts and planted community tanks.

It responds beautifully to trimming: every cut sends out new side shoots, so the group gets thicker and fuller each time. Give it good light and steady nutrients, with CO2 if you have it, and it rewards you with lush, compact growth you can shape into flowing bushes or a full green backdrop.

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