✂️ Care
Plant in a nutrient-rich substrate in the mid- or background. Give the plant at least 15–20 cm of space around it. Trim the roots back to 3–4 cm before planting. Liquid fertilization like Sera Florena and root tabs enhance the red leaf color.
💡 Planter's tip
Ideal as a solitary plant or anchor point in the mid-zone. Combines beautifully with green plants like Anubias or Cryptocoryne for maximum color contrast.
