There are several varieties of this plant. The variety proposed by Tropica is said to come from Malaysia. It is characterised by its narrow green leaves, which are purple on the back. Like most other red plants, the colour depends on a supply of intensive light. CO2 addition promotes growth significantly, and it also thrives in hard water.
Limnophilla aromatica is easy to propagate by cuttings.
A bundle of stems or young plants gathered in an anchor. Remove the anchor and split into separate plants. Regarding stem plants, remove the leaves from the lowest 5 cm (2“). Remove any damaged leaves. Plant the individual plants with some distance into the bottom substrate. Roots will develop soon and the plant start growing.
