Lobelia Cardinalis
Lobelia Cardinalis is an interesting specimen that is native to North America. This specimen can be found growing in marshy conditions in the wild and is characterized by its evergreen leaves with purple undersides. When grown in an aquarium setting, Lobelia Cardinalis typically produces lighter shades of green and will grow to an average height of 5-10cm, making it suitable for foreground or midground placement in a planted tank.
When grown above the water’s surface, Lobelia Cardinalis will produce scarlet flowers. This specimen is also suitable for outdoor ponds. Quality substrate and nutrients, paired with CO2 injection and low to medium lighting will help with overall growth and health.
Tissue culture plants are grown in vitro from a state of the art laboratory specialized in propagating aquatic plants. This means you can enjoy strong and healthy plants free from pests and diseases from the start.
