Now this plant has been around for a little while, what are people's experiences with it? I bought a pot when it was released and it has grown, albeit slowly. Unfortunately, my ludwigia keeps growing over the top of it so it never gets as much light as it should and it doesn't look in the best...

I have some L. arcuata which is growing really well and has redder leaves at the top which get redder towards the tip. I assumed this was just the plant colouring but I noticed last night that the leaves with the most red are starting to look almost like they're drying out. Thinner and kind of...

I'm thinking of plants for my 3 footer and have a few ideas, one being that I want some Ludwigia in there. The reason being that (believe it or not) I've never grown any! Doing some research and I find that there are several available, although different suppliers offer different species. Are...

Hi all, I'm starting to plan the layout of my 3' tank (18" high, 15" wide - I can't think in cm!). I really like the look of some of the new red echinodorus species/varieties such as ozelot, red flame etc. I don't want it to swamp my tank though as I want some space for other plants and wood...

Hi, me again! I bought a new plant (unlabelled) a couple of weeks ago and the new growth is different - presumably it's the immersed leaves. Sorry about the photo quality, but could anyone ID it for me? Thanks.

Hi, This is a picture of my Amazon sword. I was wondering if it's a bit pale and needs some iron? Any idea what species it is? I've seen so many names for 'common swords' that I'm a bit confused. Are Echinodorous Amazonicus, E. paniculata and E. Bleheri all the same plant? Oh, and excuse...
