Care Tips: Ludwigia peruensis is a beautiful aquatic plant known for its elongated green leaves with reddish accents. It requires medium to high lighting to bring out its vibrant colors and ensure healthy growth. CO₂ supplementation enhances its growth and color, making it a perfect choice for aquariums with higher lighting. Regular trimming encourages bushier growth and keeps the plant from becoming too leggy. It can thrive in a wide range of water conditions but prefers a nutrient-rich substrate and frequent water changes to maintain optimal health.
