Ludwigia Inclinata 'Curly' — Tissue Culture Cup (Ludwigia inclinata var. verticillata 'Curly')
The Ludwigia Inclinata 'Curly' is one of the most visually dramatic stem plants available to aquascapers. Its uniquely twisted, spiralling leaves radiate outward in a star-like whorl pattern, displaying a breathtaking gradient of orange, red, and pink under high light and CO₂. Supplied as a tissue culture (T/C) cup — 100% pest-, snail-, and algae-free, ready to plant straight from the cup.
Why Aquascapers Love It
- Extraordinary form — spiralling, curly leaves arranged in whorls create an unmistakable sculptural silhouette
- Vivid colouration — leaves shift from green-orange to deep red and pink depending on light intensity and nutrient levels
- Tissue culture quality — guaranteed free of snails, pests, parasites, and algae
- Show-stopping centrepiece — ideal as a focal point or bold background statement in high-tech aquascapes
- Highly rewarding — demanding but delivers unmatched visual impact when conditions are dialled in
Care at a Glance
- Difficulty: Advanced
- Placement: Mid-ground to Background; use as a focal point
- Light: High (high-PAR LED strongly recommended)
- CO₂: Essential — will not thrive without injection
- Temperature: 22–28 °C (72–82 °F)
- pH: 5.5–6.8 | Hardness: 0–10 dGH (soft, acidic water preferred)
- Fertilisation: Heavy macro and micro dosing required; iron supplementation enhances red colouration
- Growth rate: Moderate
- Propagation: Stem cuttings — trim tops and replant
Each cup contains multiple healthy plantlets ready to be separated and planted. For best results, plant in groups of 3–5 stems and allow to acclimate before expecting full colour expression. Pair with fine-leaved green plants like Hemianthus callitrichoides or Eleocharis sp. to create stunning contrast with the curly red whorls.
