Ludwigia repens x arcuata is a rare hybrid cross between Ludwigia repens and Ludwigia arcuata, known for its unique coloration and relatively quick growth rate in aquatic environments. This hybrid combines the characteristics of both parent species, resulting in a plant that showcases vibrant yellow-orange to red-orange hues with an orange-pink hue often visible on the underside of its leaves.

In aquariums, Ludwigia repens x arcuata thrives under moderate to high lighting conditions, which enhance its color intensity. It grows best in nutrient-rich substrate or when supplemented with root tabs to support its growth and nutrient requirements. This hybrid prefers stable water parameters, including temperatures between 22-28°C (72-82°F) and slightly acidic to neutral pH levels (around 6.0-7.5), ensuring optimal health and color development.

Care for Ludwigia repens x arcuata involves regular pruning to maintain its bushy growth habit and encourage lateral branching. Propagation is straightforward through stem cuttings, which can be replanted to propagate and fill out the aquarium with its vibrant colors. This hybrid adds a unique and captivating element to aquascapes, making it a desirable choice for aquarists looking to create dynamic and colorful underwater landscapes.
