Ludwigia Palustris ‘Super Mini Red’ Potted

The Super Red Ludwigia Sp. Mini, scientifically known as Ludwigia sp. ‘Super Red,’ is a highly sought-after plant among aquarists due to its striking appearance. With its vibrant red foliage and compact growth pattern, it creates a captivating contrast against green plants and other aquarium elements. Its unique appearance makes it an excellent choice for creating focal points or adding visual interest to both large and small aquariums.

Propagating the Super Red Ludwigia Sp. Mini is relatively straightforward. It can be achieved through stem cuttings, where healthy, well-established stems are trimmed and replanted into the substrate. The trimmed stems can also be used to create new plants by allowing them to float until they develop roots. Regular pruning is essential to maintain the plant’s compact growth and prevent excessive shading of surrounding plants.

Proper nutrition is vital for the health and coloration of the Super Red Ludwigia Sp. Mini. A nutrient-rich substrate or regular supplementation with root tabs will provide essential nutrients, while liquid fertilizers can help fulfill its additional nutrient requirements. Regular water changes and the removal of decaying leaves will help prevent algae growth and maintain water quality.
