Plant ID..?

homemadepopcorn · 01-29-2013, 02:59 AM

Anyone have any ideas as to what this is?

I'm fairly sure that the LFS had it mismarked.

What was it labeled as? It doesn't look familiar to me. Also, that's a thick stem for an aquatic plant..

Ludwigia glandulosa?

steven p · 01-29-2013, 04:11 AM

Could be, emergent growth?

homemadepopcorn · 01-29-2013, 06:08 AM

Truthfully, I don't remember what it was labeled, but I've seen it carry two different names at the LFS over the course of a week...

I believe its L. glandulousa as well.

But l. glandulousa has a much more even coloration and is considerably redder than what I've got in the tank... the new growth is light green/yellow compared to the pictures of l. glandulousa. Leaves are also broader however the stem thickness seems consistent.

Nonetheless, it does seem like a ludwigia sp.

Its need very high light to get that deep red color.
And if you got it at your LFS it was most likely grown emersed.

Yes, L. glandulosa.

i agree it is not L. Gandulousa his leaves are more pointed. i have the exact same plant in my tank. but of course i forgot the name :-/ shame on me

Dang... do you remember if it is ludwigia? That would help narrow it down quite a bit lol.

You've already gotten the correct answer from four people. It's emersed grown glandulosa. Leaf shape can vary a bit, but the characters on which everyone's ID has been based are readily evident.
