Tropica Rotala rotundifolia 'H'ra' 1-2-Grow!

Rotala 'H'ra' has rather narrow leaves and an overhanging or creeping growth. It is probably a variation of Rotala rotundifolia and has much resemblance to Rotala sp. 'Green'. High light levels, good fertilization and added CO2 will induce almost exclusively creeping growth and a warm, rich orange coloration. This makes it possible to create a dense, orange mid-ground cushion or even an unusual, orange foreground carpet.

Care requirements: Difficulty: Medium (per Tropica). Light demand: Medium. CO2 demand: Medium; added CO2 is beneficial. Growth rate: Medium. Placement: Midground to background (stem group). Height in tank: 3-20+ cm. Aquarium plant from tissue culture in closed cup.
