Hygrophila Stricta ( Red Stem UNIQUE Plant)
This Hygrophila prefers a almost any environment. It enjoys moderate lighting and provides a gorgeous reddish tint to it's beautiful elongated leaves. The red stem helps aid this visual effect. I would say it likes its ph around 6.8 to 7.5.
These plants have beautiful white roots and are completely submerged plants. I would rate it a 3 out of 10 in terms of difficulty as it does prefer a moderate light.
The more light you give them, the more RED they will give you.
Unlike most Hygrophila the leaves on this plant are rather soft.

i love hygros and this one might be my all time favorite. I love the coloring and i hope it does well in my tanks!
Such a nice looking plant! Came in looking great and is a beautiful addition to the tank
While all of the plants from my order came in healthy, this was by far the most impressive. The leaves were all bright and healthy. Very little trimming needed. Stems were a nice red and all had new root growth even in the packaging. No stem trimming required. My only regret is not ordering more than one bunch!
This plant is tall, streamlined and a wonderful addition to my tank. It came, as usual with great roots and suffered no leaf loss or melt back. There were more stems than I expected too! Another great product, thanks!
Came nicely packed in a sealed bag, tons of stems wrapped carefully, already sending roots through the sponge it came with. After I separated the stems, I couldn’t believe how generous each wrap had. Definitely ordering again from Dustin.
