Description
Ludwiga Peruensis
Ludwigia Peruensis, commonly known as Ludwiga Glandulosa, originates from North America. It is a strikingly beautiful plant. This variant produces small spade-shaped leaves in colors and shades ranging from brown to dark/intense red. Grown under ideal conditions, with good lighting and fertilization, this plant will exhibit intense red coloration and will stand out in your tank. It looks best when planted in groups.
Caring for Our Ludwiga Peruensis
If provided with proper care, Ludwiga Peruensis will grow quickly, producing intensely olive-green/pink or red leaves. The plant likes good lighting and the more intense the light the more robust growth and intense coloration the plant will exhibit. While not necessary, Ludwiga Peruensis will also appreciate some fertilization.
- Minimum Lighting Required: Medium-High
- Temperature Range: 72-82° F
- Tank Placement: Midground-Background
Ludwiga Peruensis should be planted in small groups in the middle or back of the aquarium. Stems should be planted individually. Regular trimming will keep the plant compact and looking its best. Propagation is from cuttings and side shoots.

Great colors
This plant arrived in perfect conditions. The purple and pink color contrast is just delightful. It had been 8n my aquarium for 2 weeks now and looking great. Recommended.

Red fish loving plant
This plant was one of my favorites out of package I received. It was healthy and looked amazing in my tank. The fish in my tank have shredded it to pieces all of the larger leaves have been picked off and are floating at the top of the tank. I'm glad my fish are enjoying the snack but I'm afraid the plant is going to die if they keep munching at this rate. Otherwise the plant was gorgeous and there is some new growth on the plant stems so hopefully it will bounce back

These plants are very vibrant. I had to clip a few leaves off after unwrapping them, but they really pop with their color in the tank.

So Pleased
I have ordered this plant from other companies and what arrived looked sickly at best. None of previously ordered plants made it. When I tried one last, using Modern Aquarium, the plants arrived in beautiful condition, very healthy and nice sized bunches. They have been in my tanks for over a week. There have been no problems and are doing great with new leaves starting to sprout. They provide a great contrast with my light green plants.
