Echinodorus sp. "Red Flame Sword"
Like the Ozelot Sword, the Red Flame Sword is a cultivated hybrid between
Echinodorus schlueteri
and
Echinodorus x barthii
. The Red Flame Sword variant has dark red spots on its reddish-brown leaves incontrast to the Ozelot Sword's more black-brown spots. The leaves will become more green in color as they mature.
"Sword Plants" come primarily from the
Echinodorus
genus and are marsh or bog plants from the tropical western hemisphere (North, South and Central America as well as some islands in the region). While there are around 30 scientifically accepted species, many species are cross-bred and propagated by hobbyists and nurseries to create numerous variants and hybrids.
While swords may grow emerged in the wild (with their leaves out of the water), they are well adapted to submerged life in the aquarium as well. Emerged plants grow flowers, while submerged plants will reproduce by sending out runners to grow new plants. Most swords need high lighting to thrive. They also benefit from a nutrient-rich substrate and iron and CO
2
supplements, especially in heavily planted aquariums.
