BROWN CRYPTOCORYNE

(FORMERLY CRYPTOCORYNE WENDTII TROPICA)

• This brown variation of Cryptocoryne wendtii is also very popular and can be used in a variety of plant landscapes.
• The edges of the leaves are slightly wavy and some are bullate.
• The leaves are green to brown, sometimes with brown mottling.
• In good lighting the leaves turn a deep, dark brown.
• Use as a stark contrast in combination with other green water trumpets.
• As with almost all Cryptocorynes from Sri Lanka, these grow well in hard water and are therefore ideal for cichlid aquaria.
