Red Melon Sword (Echinodorus osiris) — Potted

New growth comes in a deep coppery red and fades to bronze-green as it matures, so an established plant carries both colours at once. A sword for people who want colour without a CO2 system.

Care: easy to moderate. Moderate light brings out the red. A root feeder — use root tabs in the substrate.

Shipped potted in rock wool. Sold as one plant.
