Horemanii Red Sword Live Aquatic Plant

Like most Swords, this plant is relatively easy to grow. Like most Sword plants, this plant is a heavy root feeder. Providing root tabs such as Sera Florenette or Seachem Tabs will help this plant thrive.

Echinodorus barthii is a popular red cultivar of the Amazon Sword plant. They are a great no-fuss red leaved plant well suited for mid ground positioning. This variety has burgundy red leaves, lime green stems, and pronounced veins. Maintenance is minimal with occasional pruning. Echinodorus Horemanii Red can be grown submerged or emersed, and new leaves can sometimes grow above the water line. To propagate, cut older leafless parts of the rhizome into pieces that will develop new leaf rosettes

Plant info

  • Plant directly into the substrate
  • Use a nutrient-rich substrate and provide a good iron supply
  • Provide moderate lighting
  • Maintain a water temperature of 20–28°C
  • Change the water weekly or more to prevent nutrient buildup
  • Supplement with root tabs if using inert substrates like gravel or sand
  • Provide CO2 to promote growth, though it's not essential

Please note that this plant is sold as a bunch, size of the bunch will vary depending on season/time of year.
