Ludwigia White

Ludwigia inclinata var. verticillata 'White' is a stunning rare aquarium plant that looks best in high-tech aquariums. In optimal conditions it is one of the few aquarium plants with almost pure white leaves, making it a highly sought-after plant by many aquarists.

The stems produce a large mass of narrow leaves growing in a whorl, creating a dense and fluffy appearance that can be absolutely breathtaking when grown under optimal conditions.

Ludwigia White requires high lighting to show white colouration in its leaves - in medium lighting generally only the crowns will be a lighter colour. In very intense lighting the crown develops pink hues, creating a unique look in the aquarium. Additional CO2 supplementation is highly recommended to achieve its full potential.

As a relatively demanding plant, Ludwigia White is not recommended for beginner aquarists. However, for those with the appropriate equipment and experience, this plant can be a stunning addition to the aquarium. Overall, Ludwigia White is a beautiful and unique aquarium plant that is sure to impress. With the right conditions and care, it can be a stunning addition to any high-tech aquarium.
