Lagenandra keralensis is a fascinating aquatic plant that belongs to the family Araceae. It is commonly known as the "Kerala Lagenandra" or "Green Lagenandra." Native to the southwestern region of India, this plant offers a unique and captivating presence in aquariums and aquascapes.
Lagenandra keralensis is known for its broad, ovate-shaped leaves that are typically dark green in color. The leaves can vary in size, with some reaching lengths of around 15-20 centimeters. One of the distinctive features of this plant is the prominent, intricate venation pattern that runs through the leaves, adding to its visual appeal.
In terms of care, Lagenandra keralensis requires moderate to high lighting conditions to thrive. It prefers temperatures ranging from 22-28 degrees Celsius (72-82 degrees Fahrenheit) and soft to moderately hard water with a slightly acidic to neutral pH level.
Propagation of Lagenandra keralensis can be achieved through the division of the rhizome. As the plant grows, it produces offshoots or plantlets that can be carefully separated and replanted to establish new individual plants. This species can also produce flowers above the waterline, showcasing small inflorescences with white or cream-colored spathes.
Lagenandra keralensis is a captivating addition to any aquarium, bringing a touch of elegance and uniqueness to the aquascape. With proper care and maintenance, it can thrive and contribute to the overall aesthetic appeal of the aquatic environment.
