Common Name: Cardinal Plant, Lobelia Cardinalis The Cardinal Plant (Lobelia cardinalis) is an uncommon yet captivating addition to the foreground or middle ground of planted freshwater aquariums. In nature, it can be found growing along streams, rivers, and waterways. With sufficient height, it can even serve well in the background. Its submerged form showcases vibrant green foliage, occasionally tinged with red-purple on the leaf undersides, though this hue is more commonly observed in its emersed form. Notably, the Cardinal Plant is renowned for its striking red flowers that bloom from its emersed growth. To thrive, the Cardinal Plant requires moderate to high levels of lighting. Regular trimming of its tops allows for mat expansion, while proper care encourages the development of lush side shoot leaves. The addition of fertilizers can be advantageous in maintaining optimal coloration and overall plant health. Family Name: Lobeliaceae Origin: North America Max Height: 12" pH: 6-7.5 Care: Easy Light: Medium to High Co2: Recommended Propagation: Cut stem, new growth, or lateral shoots Growth rate: Moderate Shipping Size: 2-3"
