This is essentially the same species, except this being the green variant

They say to cut it back so it grows better. I have never personally done this, but it isn't a bad idea for how to care for a tiger lotus. The Tiger Lotus is from west Africa and just looks great as a contrast in you planted aquarium tank. You get so much of an interesting plant with such a great red that I really love this plant.
