Family: Acanthaceae
Species: Hygrophila
Type: Stängelpflanze
This new variety from India has some highly unusual attributes. It has been commercially available for only a few years and is finding more and more use in fascinating landscapes. Not only are the leaves a very attractive rust brown to olive green, they also have a lovely feathered shape. Combine with simple plant shapes to really highlight the ornamental leaves. These plants also have the ability to grow on rocks and roots, which is completely atypical for stem plants.

Hygrophila polysperma ‘Sunset’

Licht Icon 22 - 28 °C Temperature
Licht Icon CO2
Licht Icon 30 cm / schnell Growth
Family: Acanthaceae
Species: Hygrophila
Type:
'Sunset' is a beautiful cultivar for the mid to background. In its emersed state the leaves are very striking with whitish-yellow veins; below the surface the plant shows its full vibrancy in hues from light pink to a deep reddish-pink. As with the regular H. polysperma, this variety is easy to care for and undemanding. Most other coloured stem plants are more difficult. A good iron fertiliser will help the shoots develop their intense colouring. The leaves of Hygrophila polysperma are 4 cm wide - smaller than the original form and therefore suitable for Nano Cubes.

Licht Icon 50 cm / schnell Growth
Family: Acanthaceae
Species: Hygrophila
Type:
Hygrophila polysperma is one of the "easiest" aquatic plants. Even in the worst possible conditions it will continue to grow. Improving the conditions is, obviously, beneficial to the plant and its growth. Under good lighting the shoots turn a reddish-brown colour. This plant grows very quickly and needs to be cut back more frequently than other stem plants. Highly recommended for new setups and as a preventive measure against algae.

Licht Icon CO2
Licht Icon 20 cm Growth
Family: Juncaceae
Species: Juncus
Type: Stängelpflanze
Juncus repens is a grass-like marsh plant which also grows strongly under water. This small species of rush is native to southern and eastern USA and inhabits marshy shallow water. In the aquarium, Juncus repens is easy to care for and resilient. Soft water with a good CO2 supply promotes optimum growth. In combination with other grass-like plants, you can design decorative meadow landscapes. However, this creeping rush also makes an attractive feature as a "filler plant" between stones. With strong lighting and a good supply of micro-nutrients, the shoots can also become slightly reddish in colour.

Lagenandra meeboldii ´Red´

Licht Icon 22 - 28 °C Temperature
Licht Icon CO2
Licht Icon 20 cm / langsam Growth
Family: Araceae
Species: Lagenandra
Type: Rhizompflanze
The genus Lagnandra is very closely related to the Cryptocorynes and colonises similar habitats. Lagenandra meeboldii is a very varied species and the variety ‚Red‘ is a wonderfully coloured plant for the midground. Until now most species in the genus Lagenandra were unsuitable for aquariums, however this new plant from India does impressively well in an underwater landscape. Here they also form a strong rhizome like the Anubias, but they should be planted into the substrate. With its striking colour this Indian beauty makes a great feature in a plant aquarium.

Hygrophila difformis

Licht Icon Lighting

Licht Icon Position
Licht Icon 22 - 28 °C Temperature
Licht Icon CO2
Licht Icon 50 cm / schnell Growth
Family: Acanthaceae
Species: Hygrophila
Type:
Water wisteria is an impressive example of the adaptability of leaves above and below the waterline. Emersed leaf blades have a simple shape with slightly serrated edges. Submerged leaves tend to look more like feathers. This makes the plant look wonderfully dainty. H. difformis is best showcased in combination with simple leaf shapes. These plants are easy to cultivate, which of course makes them even more attractive. Propagation is very easy: remove side-shoots from the main stem and replant.

Hygrophila corymbosa ‘Compact’

Licht Icon Position
Licht Icon 22 - 28 °C Temperature
Licht Icon CO2
Licht Icon 15 cm / langsam Growth
Family: Acanthaceae
Species: Hygrophila
Type:
This dwarf format probably came about via mutation, and is not typical for the Hygrophila genus. The stems are heavily compressed and the leaves are closely packed. Plants cultivated above water have deep green leaves, whereas aquarium plants have bright green leaves. It grows slowly, which makes it much easier to care for than other Hygrophila varieties. It is ideal as a foreground plant. Its leaf shape makes this a nice change from the usual foreground plants.

Licht Icon 22 - 28 °C Temperature
Licht Icon CO2
Licht Icon 50 cm / schnell Growth
Family: Acanthaceae
Species: Hygrophila
Type: Rosettenpflanze
This variety has larger but narrower leaves than the original form of H. corymbosa. Here too the submerged leaves are light green, but the leaf pairs are closer together. Open aquaria give the shoots enough space to grow upwards, where they eventually turn an intense dark green again. Good lighting and CO2 supplementation go a long way towards promoting growth. Large-leaved Hygrophila are best presented in aquaria larger than 100 cm. Show off their best features by planting a group of at least 10 - 15 stems.

Hygrophila corymbosa ‘Thailand’

Licht Icon 22 - 28 °C Temperature
Licht Icon CO2
Licht Icon 50 cm / schnell Growth
Family: Acanthaceae
Species: Hygrophila
Type:
'Thailand' has the thinnest leaves of all three varieties of H. corymbosa. Under strong lighting the leaves turn a reddish-brown; under normal lighting they are a medium to light green. Open aquaria enable the plants to produce small, lilac flowers. Emersed shoots typically display hairs on the stems, and are generally firmer and more solid. Varieties of Hygrophila are also ideal for paludaria and humid terrariums.
