Rotala Nanjenshan

Common Name: Rotala Nanjenshan Rotala Nanjenshan is a hybrid cross between Rotala Rotundifolia and Rotala Wallichi. It requires high light and CO2 to thrive and prefers softer acidic water. Notes: Photos show the plant in its emersed vs. submerged form. The form you receive will be based on availability and seasonality. If you receive an emersed plant, simply plant the stems in your aquarium substrate and new, submerged-grown leaves will grow within a few days. Rotala has fragile leaves! Be sure to handle with care.  Final coloration is ultimately dependent upon the conditions this plant is kept in. This is a live plant meaning size, shape and color may vary. Do not make drastic changes to the aquarium. Unstable parameters will result in melt and rotting of the aquarium plant. Please be sure to remove this plant from its wrap. Remove the foam surrounding the roots and plant into a quality substrate. For instructions on how to properly prep “bunched“ aquarium plants, click here. CO2 injection and quality aquarium soil will yield better growth. Please research appropriately to ensure your plant thrives.
