Live Plant Tiger Lotus - Green Small

Green 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. 

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. 

The height of the tiger lotus ranges from 15 – 60+ cm (~5 – 25+ inches) and can grow taller under optimal conditions. Red tiger lotus exhibits a fast growth rate pattern, with its strong root system that spreads all over the tank if they are not properly contained.
