Cryptocoryne Wendtii Red

Cryptocoryne wendtii 'Red' offers all the toughness of the classic wendtii with leaves that turn warm reddish-brown to bronze, especially under brighter light. It's an easygoing root feeder that spreads by runners into a full midground clump and adapts to a wide range of conditions. Expect some melting when first planted — it's normal, and new leaves soon push up from the roots.
