Ludwigia arcuata brings delicate beauty to your planted aquarium with its fine, needle-like leaves that develop stunning red-orange coloration. This graceful stem plant features thin, arching leaves arranged in whorls, creating a soft, feathery texture that adds elegance and movement to midground and background positions.
Ludwigia arcuata performs best with CO2 supplementation and nutrient-rich substrate. The vibrant red-orange coloration develops under higher lighting conditions and with adequate iron and micronutrient supplementation. Plant in groups of 7-10 stems for maximum visual impact, creating a soft, cloud-like effect. Regular trimming encourages bushier growth and maintains the delicate form. The fine texture creates stunning contrast when positioned alongside broad-leaved plants or used as a backdrop for hardscape elements. This species is particularly effective in nature-style aquascapes where its graceful, flowing form mimics natural plant growth.
