Description
Echinodorus ‘Red Diamond’ appeared as a culture in the Ukraine, and is probably a cross between E. horemanni ‘red’ and E. x barthii. The resultant hybrid is an attractive plant with ruby-red sword-shaped leaves. Unlike many of the other Echinodorus species, Echinodorus ‘Red Diamond’ remains moderate in size, so it is extremely well suited as a solitary plant, even in small aquariums. Increasing the nutrients in the substrate results in more abundant growth, while favourable light conditions promote the formation of the ruby-red leaves.
