Another underwater landscaping wonder is the red-glowing stem plant called Alternanthera Reineckii Mini. This aquatic species provides emphasis on the concept you would want to convey to your spectators.
Originated from South America, Alternanthera Reineckii, in its wildest form grows best in submerged condition. It is found lying on riversides, wetlands, and in moistened areas due to flooding caused by rains. Yet, its miniature size can be produced and cultured through a systematic form of cultivation derived from its natural source.
At the present time, there are five known varieties of Alternanthera reineckii that are cultured into dwarf miniatures. Among them is AR Mini, which is an easy cultivar and is the widely spread variety in aquatrade.
Tissue cultures are in a 5cm container - simply rinse gel and plant.
