Mosaic Ludwigia will be a unique addition to your pond or aquarium that boasts large flower like leaves that float on the surface!

 

Mosaic Ludwigia (Ludwigia inclinata) is one of the more unique plants in the aquairum hobby! This plant forms its leaves into a mosaic tile medallion shape that floats on top of the surface of the water. The leaves are each in the shape of a diamond that vary from dark to light green with red edges. The stem needs to be planted in the substrate but the leaves will float on the surface making it a unique addition to your pond or aquarium.

It can can be a little touchy and does best in very stable water conditions. It also thrives best in low to no flow set ups. Be sure to handle Mosaic Ludwigia with care as it can be fragile when being handled. 

Mosaic Ludwigia requires high lighting and will benefit from from CO2 supplementation and micronutrients such as iron in particular. 

It will bloom if lighting simulates the seasonal changes. The blooms will be yellow and resemble buttercups. When lighting is set this way the leaves will fold up at night and unfurl fully in light hours. 

Like most plants, Mosaic Ludwigia will benefit from supplementation such as Seachem Flourish, Flourish Excel, Flourish Nitrogen, Flourish Iron, and other plant supplements.

No aquarium plant distributor/nursery/wholesaler/retailer can or will guarantee their plants to be 100% snail free. We can not guarantee our plants will be snail free.

    Current Handling Time:

    1-9 business days

    Here at Aquatic Arts, we consider the welfare of the live animals we are shipping to be of the foremost importance. This process is much more involved than simply creating a shipping label and affixing it to a box. Depending on the order, it takes from 4 to 7 people to complete this process properly. We check the weather conditions here where they fly out of the Indianapolis UPS facility and the destination for each shipment. We start early each morning and go through a multi-step process to have the day's shipments prepared in time for the UPS pickup. The volume of orders in our system also affects the processing time. Therefore our stated handling time is 1-9 business days. 

    Shipping Rate

    Pricing is by size of package needed to fill entire order and distance it must travel. It will be calculated at checkout.
