Cryptocoryne spiralis 'Red'

Info

Cryptocoryne spiralis ‘Red’ impresses with long, narrow leaves in intense shades of red and brown and brings natural depth to any underwater landscape. In well-lit aquariums with a nutrient-rich substrate it develops its full colouring especially well. Compared to other Cryptocorynes, it grows upright and has a characteristic, slightly twisted leaf structure - a striking accent for the centre to background.

The plant is robust, adaptable and thrives reliably even in medium light. With its upright growth, Cryptocoryne spiralis ‘Red’ provides structure and dynamism in the layout and is ideal for breaking up dense groups of plants. Perfect for near-natural aquarium designs - from classic community aquariums to modern aquascapes.
