Description

Ludwigia sphaerocarpa

Ludwigia sphaerocarpa is a less common Ludwigia species prized for its bright green to golden leaves and compact, bushy growth. Under strong lighting and with nutrient-rich conditions, the plant can develop subtle orange to reddish hues, making it a great choice for adding warm tones and texture to your aquascape.

This stem plant grows upright but will branch readily when trimmed, allowing aquarists to create dense background or midground groupings. Its smaller, rounded leaves make it an attractive contrast to larger-leaved Ludwigia species.

Key Features

  • Uncommon species with rounded green to golden leaves
  • May develop warm orange-red tones under strong light
  • Ideal for midground to background placement
  • Fast-growing and easy to propagate through cuttings
  • Excellent choice for adding color variation to planted tanks

Additional Notes
