Rotala wallichii – loose

Description

Rotala wallichii is a stunning aquatic plant known for its delicate, bushy growth and vibrant green foliage. Its fine, needle-like leaves grow densely along slender stems, creating a lush and textured appearance in any aquascape. Under high lighting and CO₂ supplementation (recommended for best growth and coloration, but not required), it can develop a soft reddish tint on the leaf tips, adding beautiful contrast to the plant’s overall green tones.

To thrive, Rotala wallichii requires a nutrient-rich substrate and regular fertilization with macro and micronutrients. Its moderate to fast growth rate means it benefits from routine trimming to maintain a compact, bushy form. It works wonderfully as a midground or background plant, adding depth and vibrancy to your aquarium.
