Red Tiger Lotus - approx 15-20cm

Red Tiger Lotus (Nymphaea zenkeri) is a remarkable red bulb plant with stunning bright colours and interesting leaf patterns.  These plants are colourful, easy to care for, fast-growers, and great additions to the planted tank for both those with experience in the fish keeping hobby and beginners.  Excellent foreground to mid-ground feature plant. Works well in a large tank as it grows quite large, however if keeping this plant in a medium sized tank, be sure to trim regularly to prevent it from taking over.  It can grow to a very large size and will sometimes flower when kept in shallow enough water or emersed conditions, so it is a terrific plant for paludariums as well.
