C30 Ludwigia Orange – Vibrant Orange Stem Aquarium Plant

C30 Ludwigia Orange is a striking aquarium plant prized for its intense orange hues and fast-growing stem structure. Under optimal conditions, the leaves develop shades ranging from golden orange to deep red-orange, making it an excellent focal or contrast plant in aquascaping layouts.

This Ludwigia variety grows upright and responds well to regular trimming, encouraging bushier growth and denser plant groups. While it can survive in moderate conditions, high lighting, CO₂ supplementation, and consistent fertilization significantly enhance coloration and overall growth performance.

Native to the Americas, Ludwigia Orange adapts well to a range of water parameters and is suitable for both intermediate and experienced aquarists. It is completely shrimp-safe and fish-safe, making it ideal for community tanks and high-tech planted aquariums.
