- Growing Difficulty
- Beginner-friendly
- Lifespan
- Bulb plant
- Size
- 15-40cm
- Watering
- Root tabs
- Lighting
- Moderate lighting is enough. To enjoy the red-to-brown submersed leaves, place it in a prominent mid- to background spot that light reaches.
- CO2 & Fertilizer
- It can be grown without CO2, but since the roots absorb nutrients vigorously, substrate fertilizer is especially effective.
- Substrate & Attachment
- Grown from a bulb; small leaves appear first and gradually enlarge. Plant the bulb in the substrate without burying it too deeply.
- Trimming & Propagation
- Fast-growing and needs regular trimming. Cut floating leaves as soon as they start to appear to keep enjoying the submersed leaves.
- Cautions
- It grows large, so it suits a roomy tank. Left alone, floating leaves cover the surface and shade the plants below.
