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.

Ludwigia Peruensis
Plants arrive looking healthier than the photo and seem like a good value with the amount they send. It was pretty warm when they were delivered and had to be picked up after work, but they were none the worse for wear; so packaged well. Most importantly, they have been growing well almost since the beginning. Roots and new solid new grow by day 3. It's only been about a week and they are already turning bright red and are established.

Ludwiga
Well I’ve heard a lot of good things about buying from modern aquarium so I had to give it a chance. Although I was expecting a nice reddish purple plant the ones I had received were still very young and green, witch is no problem I was just under the impression I would revive an already developed and purple plant. The plant was very healthy and I was over all happy with my purchase, yet I was not as satisfied as I originally wanted
