Tropica Rotala rotundifolia
Roundleaf toothcup live aquarium plant for decoration and fish stimulation

- Tall live Rotala plant for freshwater aquariums
- Easy to grow with a medium growth rate
- A range of sizes to choose from
Rotala rotundifolia's common name is Roundleaf toothcup and is from South East Asia. Available in either a grown on rooted plant, or as a smaller Mini Pot that is grown in a coconut fibre casing, which can be planted directly into the aquarium.
Rotala rotundifolia has long, thin leaves and 15-30 long stems, 2-3 cm wide including the leaves. Unlike other Rotala species it is relatively undemanding, although it needs good light to produce red leaves. It forms side shoots willingly, becoming compact and bushy. This also means that it is hard for light to reach the lower leaves, so the plant should be pruned frequently
