Common Name: Rotala Manipurensis

Rotala Manipurensis is native to South East Asia, and can be adapted to grow in both emersed and submerged environments. The leaves are narrow and bright green. When grown under high light and with CO2 injections, hues of orange will be appreciated. In ideal environments, Rotala Manipurensis will have a fast growth rate. Due to the growth rate, we recommend using Rotala Manipurensis as a background or midground plant for coverage and depth. Regular trimming will be needed to keep Rotala Manipurensis compact and away from the surface. Trimmings can be replanted as a form of propagation.
