Alternanthera Rosanervig - In Vitro
The Alternanthera 'Rosanervig' is a fairly slow grower, a sensitive plant with a beautiful deep pink to red colour.The veins of the leaf are a slightly lighter pink in color.
The stem of the Alternanthera 'Rosanervig' generally remains shorter than other Alternanthera species.
This plant is recommended for beginning hobbyists who want to try a red aquarium plant.
Lots of light and plant food is recommended to make the plant grow to its full potential. Co2 is not a requirement, but can promote the health and color intensity of the plant.
This is because CO2 stimulates the production of red pigments, among other things.
Prune the plant after about 3 weeks to encourage more compact growth.
The cut tops can be replanted if necessary, remove the lower leaves to prevent rot.
Also avoid completely removing this plant from the soil, as the roots and leaves are very sensitive.
