Ludwigia ‘Dark Orange’ is a stunning, colorful stem plant prized for its deep orange to red hues and graceful, upright growth habit. Cultivated through sterile tissue culture, this plant is 100% pest-free, algae-free, and snail-free, making it an excellent choice for shrimp tanks and high-end aquascapes.
Ludwigia species are native to North and South America, thriving in shallow waters and along the edges of slow-moving streams. In aquariums, the ‘Dark Orange’ variety develops intense orange, amber, and red tones under high light and CO₂ supplementation, creating a warm, eye-catching accent for planted aquariums.
Lighting: Medium to high light enhances coloration and leaf density.
CO₂ & Fertilization: Strongly recommended for vibrant color and compact growth; responds well to iron-rich fertilizers.
Placement: Best for midground to background areas; plant stems in groups for a bushy effect.
Water Parameters: Grows well in 68–82°F (20–28°C), pH 6.0–7.5, soft to moderately hard water.
Maintenance: Trim regularly and replant cuttings to maintain shape and encourage new growth.
Pest-free, algae-free, and snail-free, perfect for sensitive aquariums.
Grown in a sterile laboratory environment for optimal health.
Ready to plant—just rinse off the gel and place directly in substrate.
Ideal for shrimp tanks, nano tanks, and contest aquascapes.
Adds a rich, orange-red contrast to green aquascapes.
Fast-growing and easy to propagate from cuttings.
Suitable for intermediate to advanced aquascapers.
Brings color depth and texture to planted aquariums.
