✂️ Care
Low-maintenance and suitable for most aquariums. The reddish-brown spots are best expressed with more light. Do not plant the rhizome too deep in the substrate. Remove old leaves at the base to make way for new growth.
💡 Planting tip
The unique speckled pattern makes this plant a real eye-catcher. Combine with solid green plants to highlight the pattern.
