Description

Rotala sp 'Colorata'

  • Intense bright red colours
  • Suitable for setting red accents
  • Loosely upright to overhanging

This plant was introduced with the name Rotala sp. 'Colorata' and is apparently a form of the very variable species R. rotundifolia. There are several forms of R. rotundifolia in a trade that attain a more or less intensive red colour when cultivated submersed, e.g. the plants erroneously sold under the name "Rotala indica". R. rotundifolia 'Colorata' turns a reddish hue even under moderate light. Under strong light, it develops a pretty red colouration.

Rotala SP Colorata is another variation of Rotala Roundtifoilia. Rotala SP Colorata doesn't need much to grow, but like other Rotala, it will do better with better lighting and co2. Rotala SP Colorata will change colour based on the lighting and co2. Its leaves are narrow, and it sends off a bunch of side shoots.
