Description

'Singapore Blood Red', also "Blood Red Singapore", certainly has the most intense red colouring of all Rotala rotundifolia forms. Under the same conditions, this Rotala has a darker red shade than R. rotundifolia 'Colorata'. As with "normal" Rotala rotundifolia, the shoots grow mostly upright to ascending, in very strong light also more or less horizontally. As with "normal" Rotala rotundifolia, the shoots grow to over 50 cm long, but look better if they are kept about 20 - 40 cm high by cutting and replanting cuttings. They branch quite well, the bushy growth is promoted by occasional pruning.

Leaf structure of the submerged leaves

This splendid red stem plant shares fast growth and easy culture with other forms of round-leaved Rotala. It still grows in moderate lighting and without added CO2, but looks best with strong light, added CO2 and complete macro and micronutrient fertilisation through the water column. Propagation is easy via head cuttings and side shoots.

Rotala rotundifolia 'Singapore' is a real eye-catcher as an about 20 - 40 cm high bush in the midground and background. It contrasts particularly well with light green plants and adds a rich red tone to the varied shades of R. rotundifolia forms.

Rotala rotundifolia "Singapore Blood Red" still grows under moderate lighting and without added CO2, but looks best with strong light, CO2 supplementation and complete macro- and micronutrient fertilization via the water column. The optimal temperature is between 18 and 28°C.

It grows taller than 50 cm, but the lowest and therefore older parts become bare over time, so it looks much better when it is kept at a height of 20 to 40 cm.

Rotala rotundifolia Singapore can grow emersed. However, the plant then stays rather green.

Mega Portion, kaum leer zu bekommen.

Die Portion im Becher war mega üppig. Habe damit sowohl 2 Schneckenvasen als auch einen Bereich in einem 54l Becken bepflanzen können, und es war immer noch etwas übrig. Top!
