Rotala macrandra 'Green'

Rotala macrandra 'Green' is a unique green variant of the popular Rotala macrandra. Unlike the traditional red forms, this variety develops vibrant lime-green to bright green foliage while maintaining the same broad, slightly rippled leaf structure that makes Rotala macrandra so desirable among aquascapers.

Its larger leaves create a softer, fuller appearance compared to many fine-leaf Rotala species. When grown in dense groups, Rotala macrandra 'Green' creates beautiful texture and contrast, particularly when paired with red stem plants and darker foliage species.
