Tropica Potted Echinodorus Red Diamond

Echinodorus 'Red Diamond': appeared as a culture in the Ukraine . and is probably a cross between Echinodorus horemanni 'Red' and Echinodorus 'Barthii'. The resultant hybrid is an attractive plant with ruby-red sword-shaped leaves . 15-25 cm long. Unlike many of the other Echinodorus-species . Echinodorus 'Red Diamond' remains moderate in size (20-30 cm wide roset) . so it is extremely well suited as a solitary plant . even in small aquariums. Increasing the nutrients in the substrate results in more abundant growth . while favourable light conditions promote the formation of the ruby-red leaves.
