Description

This especially pretty Cryptocoryne wendtii form from Sri Lanka was originally named C. wendtii var. rubella. Already cultivated for decades, it is little known in the hobby today, at least by name. Its elongate underwater leaves have a reddish coloration with light longitudinal veins and dark cross stripes. The leaf margin is slightly rippled.

As well as other Sri Lanka crypts, C. wendtii "Rubella" is an easy, adaptable aquarium plant, also growing in harder water. It also tolerates little light but develops better with medium lighting. A nutrient-rich bottom is important. The plant develops a dense stand by its underground runners.

Cryptocoryne wendtii "Rubella" is very decorative as a group in the midground, in bigger tanks also in the foreground.

(Update at the end) HELLO everyone The quantities in the trays were really very good, there was nothing to complain about quality-wise either, so I can recommend them - roots,...

Wunderbare Optik in Gruppe gepflegt

(Nachtrag am Ende)

HALLO zusammen

Die Mengen in den Schalen waren wirklich sehr gut, qualitativ gab es auch nichts zu meckern und somit kann ich sie empfehlen - Wurzelwerk, zwar noch kurz, war vorhanden und sie ließ sich nach der Vorbehandlung auch in gröberen Kies einsetzen, blieb fest sitzen und fingt schnell an sich einzugewöhnen - was will man mehr ..

Es wird spannend sein ihre Entwicklung zu verfolgen, wo ich sicherlich mal drüber berichten werde ..

NACHTRAG: Nun ist eine gute Zeit vergangen und ich kann berichten, dass sie sich bestens gemacht haben - langsam, aber stetig und von der Optik klasse anzusehen in ihrer Farbenvielfalt ..

IN GRUPPE

GEPFLANZT SEHR ZU EMPFEHLEN

Beste Grüße und habt ne gute Zeit

These appear to be an interesting and unusual crypt and I am looking forward to seeing how they develop into mature plants.
