Ludwigia White (Rare)

5 Stems

Care Requirements

  • Difficulty: Advanced (not for beginners)
  • Lighting: High to very high intensity required to maintain white/pink leaf coloration
  • CO₂: Essential injection needed for healthy growth
  • Substrate: Nutrient-rich aqusoil or active substrate
  • Water Parameters: Temperature 18°C–28°C; pH 4.5–7.0 (soft water preferred)

Key Maintenance Tips

  • Reversion: The plant can occasionally throw green shoots that mimic the faster-growing wild type (Cuba). Trim these green reversions immediately to preserve the white variegation.
  • Emersed vs. Submersed: Plants grown above water (emersed) often look green, transitioning to striking white-pink tones only after adapting to underwater (submersed) high-tech conditions.
