Bacopa Salzmannii Purple
Bacopa Salzmannii Purple is a new plant to us. This plant has the rubbery feel of Bacopa Yellow Flame except instead of fire red, this plant is Bomb Purple!
It has the same thickness of stem as a Bacopa Yellow Flame but isn't as stout. The stem has a tiny bit of fluffy fuzz to it as well. We have found it takes a week or so to really get rolling, once settled in it grows pretty quickly for a plant of this kinda color.
It likes a tad more light but we have found it doesn't mind less light, it just wont settle in as fast.
Unlike Bacopa Yellow Flame, I wouldn't trust this plant with Cichlids, but I would try it with other larger fish.
One nice thing about all Bacopa is that they don't mind being planted in straight gravel, though they do better with a nutrient rich base. GET ONE They are a wild looking plant.
Customer Reviews
Another great colorful plant for your tank. Awsome looking. I love it. Highly recommend.
The Bacopa Salzmanni is showing a little stress, but it will be fine. It is rinsed off and is now very happy in it’s new home. Wish me good luck with it!!!
When I saw this one I jumped on it! It came in excellent condition, as do all Dustin’s plants do. It has a beautiful purple color, and a very unique type of stalk. I hope I can keep it healthy. It’s really beautiful!!
This purple is so unique compared to what other have out there. Hardy plant as long as it’s not too close the to heater. I made that mistake and some turned to mush but as soon as I loved them they started to thrive with new growth coming in.
I’ve never seen an aquatic plant with such deep purple color. Very unique, and looks great next to the yellow flame bacopa. I only purchase from Dustin’s because the quality is always amazing.
