Care Tips: Ludwigia guinea is an attractive aquatic plant known for its elongated green leaves. It grows at a medium rate and thrives under medium to high lighting conditions. To maintain its vibrant color, it benefits from CO₂ supplementation, and it does well in nutrient-rich substrates. It adapts to a variety of water conditions, though it prefers slightly acidic to neutral water. Regular pruning is essential to prevent it from becoming too leggy, and it can be trimmed back to encourage bushier growth. Ludwigia guinea also benefits from regular water changes to keep its environment clean and stable.
