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.

    Plants arrived promptly in 2 very generous bunches. They were very clean with good roots already developing.

    This is a nice sturdy plant! Not as red as the picture shows but will see what happens as it grows.

    Not as full as supposed
    Posted by Kevin vandenplas on 16 Dec 2020

    They sent out a great healthy plant but it was a tad bit less... i guess “alive” than the pictures. If they would include pictures of their live plants as opposed to a photogenic version of the plant i would have lowered my expectations. I’m sure it will grow out to look just as gorgeous as the pictures though

    Nice plants
    Posted by Cindy Boedefeld on 10 Dec 2020

    I was tired of buying stuff from the pet stores in my area in St. Charles MO. I tried to buy online through Amazon and was never really impressed with many of the plants I paid for. I found this store in New York with good reviews on their plants and went for it! I am very impressed with their directions on doing a quick bleach dip before putting the plants in your tanks. I have 4 tanks that I put multiple of their plants in I have not found any snails or any critters in my tanks. I did find some when cleaning them/dipping them so it is really important to read their instructions! The plants are doing well and I have had them a week. I did seem to lose quite a few leaves during the washing process but the plants still look good! I put these plants in tanks: 1. with my African Dwarf Frogs/Betta, 2. with Mollies 3. with my male Betta and #4 tank with Tetras and they all seem to do well with it. The only thing I worry about is my frogs because they are nearly blind and I found one of them freaking out and I found he was trying to eat one of the roots growing out of the plant like he thought it was a worm. These plants have roots not only at the bottom of the plant but all along the plant. I wrangled the root away from my frog and he has not seemed to do it again….. I feel they give you a lot of plant for a "bunch" and the packaging/delivery was great.

    Pretty
    Posted by Unknown on 30 Nov 2020

    Fast shipping. A couple of them came with damaged leaves, one with most of its leaves gone but it seems like quite a fragile plant so I’m not too upset. It came a beautiful red and it seemed to thrive after putting it into my tank. Hopefully the lost leaves get replaced soon. It seems to be growing taller quickly but I don’t see any new leaves

    Posted by Michael Thornton on 16 Nov 2020

    I was completely surprised at how much more beautiful these wherein person compared to the pictures!! I will definitely be buying more of them for both my current aquariums and future aquariums.
