Hygrophila Lancea "Araguaia" - Bunched
Add a unique, creeping splash of color to your layout with Hygrophila lancea "Araguaia". Named after the Brazilian river system where it originates, this eye-catching stem plant grows in a distinct, compact, bushy habit. It features narrow, needle-like leaves that display stunning reddish-brown, copper, and deep purple-violet tones under proper lighting. Unlike typical tall stem plants, "Araguaia" naturally tends to grow horizontally and at a low angle, making it an exceptional choice for creating dense, colorful bushes in your midground. Please note: Product images are AI-generated and will vary from the actual plant received.
Key benefits:
Unique Creeping Growth: Spreads out horizontally rather than straight up, allowing you to easily cultivate a dense, colorful, shrub-like layout.
Stunning Bronze & Purple Tones: Offers an uncommon palette of coppery-red, brown, and violet colors that contrast beautifully against bright green background plants.
Compact Fine Texture: Narrow, needle-like leaves provide a highly detailed texture that adds a sense of scale and depth to smaller aquariums.
Specifications:
Form: Bunched
Growth Rate: Slow to Moderate
Placement: Foreground to Midground
Light Requirement: Medium to High (Stronger light intensifies the purple and bronze colors)
Co2 Requirement: Medium (Recommended to maintain its compact, colorful, creeping form)
Water type: Freshwater
Suggested use: Remove the lead weight or band holding the bunch together. Gently separate the individual stems and plant them into a nutrient-rich substrate, leaving a small space between each stem so light can reach the lower leaves. Trim the tops regularly to encourage lateral branching, which helps maintain its signature low, bushy shape.
What’s included: 1 x Bunched portion of Hygrophila Lancea "Araguaia"
