Overview:

Ludwigia arcuata – In Vitro is a delicate and highly decorative aquarium plant, prized for its thin, needle-like leaves and vibrant red to orange coloration under strong lighting. The in vitro tissue culture ensures a clean, algae-free, and pest-free start.

Its fine texture makes it an excellent contrast plant among broader-leaved species. When planted in groups, it creates striking colour accents and adds depth to planted aquascapes.

Care and Growth:

Medium to high lighting and CO₂ supplementation are strongly recommended to maintain compact growth and intense colouration. Regular fertilisation, particularly iron, supports healthy red hues.

Separate the in vitro portion into small clumps and plant them evenly into the substrate. Regular trimming encourages bushier growth and prevents legginess.

Key Features:

• Fine, needle-like foliage with red to orange tones
• Excellent colour contrast in planted aquariums
• Best performance under strong lighting and CO₂
• Ideal for midground or background placement
• In vitro culture ensures a clean, healthy start
