| Echinodorus 'Rosé' is a hybrid between E. horizontalis and E. horemanii "Rot" and was first produced by H. Barth in Dessau, the former Eastern Germany. On submerged plants the old leaves are brownish-green whereas the young leaves are beautifully red coloured whereas the emergent leaves are yellow-green. It is a very sturdy plant which does not require any special conditions. It does, however, prefer a relatively fertile substrate as most other fast growing plants. Many other new hybrid aquarium plants are quite difficult to culture in the aquarium but Echinodorus 'Rosé' is very modest and at the same time beautiful too. | |||||||||||||||||||
