🌿 Ludwigia Inclinata – Rare Stem Plant with Striking Foliage

Ludwigia Inclinata is a highly sought-after stem plant in the aquascaping world, admired for its slender leaves and stunning color transformation. At the Aquarium Plants Factory nursery, this plant is cultivated in its emersed form, where the leaves appear brown in color. Once submerged in an aquarium, it undergoes a dramatic transformation—its foliage shifts from shades of orange to deep red, depending on the light intensity and nutrient availability.

Native to Central and South America, this species thrives in high-tech setups and quickly becomes the centerpiece of any aquascape. Its upright growth pattern and delicate leaf structure add contrast and elegance, especially when planted in groups.
