Product details

The Echinodorus ‘Rosé’, also known as Osiris Rose Sword, is a beautiful cultivar that features striking pink to reddish-brown leaves that gradually turn green as they mature. This color transition makes it an eye-catching addition to aquascapes, offering vibrant contrast and natural beauty. The plant’s broad, elongated leaves and tall growth habit make it ideal for midground or background placement, providing a lush, colorful focal point in medium to large aquariums.

Key Features:

Striking Rosy Leaves: Echinodorus ‘Rosé’ starts with young leaves that are pink to reddish-brown, gradually turning to a vibrant green as they mature, giving the plant a dynamic and layered appearance.
Ideal Background Plant: Due to its large size, this plant is perfect for background or midground placement, where its height and broad leaves can create a stunning and natural backdrop.
Moderate to High Light Requirement: To maintain its vivid coloration, Echinodorus ‘Rosé’ benefits from moderate to high lighting, which also promotes healthy and lush growth.
Hardy and Versatile: This plant is highly adaptable and can thrive in a variety of water conditions, making it suitable for a wide range of aquascapes, from low-tech to high-tech setups.

Care Requirements:

Lighting: Echinodorus ‘Rosé’ requires medium to high lighting to maintain its beautiful pink to reddish-brown coloration. Bright lighting helps ensure that the young leaves develop their characteristic rosy hue.
CO2: CO2 supplementation is highly recommended for this plant to enhance its growth rate and help maintain its vibrant colors. While it can grow without CO2, its colors are much more pronounced when CO2 is provided.
Water Parameters: This plant is very adaptable, thriving in a pH range of 6.0-7.5 and temperatures between 22-28°C. A nutrient-rich substrate is essential for supporting the plant’s root system and encouraging strong, healthy growth.
Trimming: Echinodorus ‘Rosé’ requires minimal trimming, but removing older or damaged leaves as they age will keep the plant looking healthy and vibrant.

Planting Tips:

Plant Echinodorus ‘Rosé’ in a nutrient-rich substrate, as its deep root system requires adequate nutrients to support its large leaves and vibrant coloration.
Position the plant in the midground or background of your aquarium, giving it enough room to grow and develop its broad leaves without overshadowing smaller plants.
Gentle water flow will help prevent detritus buildup on the leaves, keeping the plant clean and allowing its stunning colors to shine.
