Common Name: Lagenandra
Lagenandra Meeboldii is a rare plant belonging to the same family as Bucephalandra and Homalomena. It’s suitable for aquarium use like Cryptocorynes, but it requires adequate light to showcase its vibrant colors. Its growth pattern creates a relatively wide appearance and colors span from a dusty green with bright violet to red-violet, often found on the same leaf. New leaves will emerge in a pale pink hue.
Its an easy plant to care for and can be grown both emersed and submerged. Its appearance bears close resemblance to a cross between Homalomena and Cryptocoryne Wendtii, with larger reddish brown oval leaves. To propagate, cut along the rhizome.
