Cryptocoryne undulata 'Broad Leaf' sits naturally between foreground carpets and taller background planting, giving both new and experienced aquarists a hardy plant that adapts its look to the tank it's kept in.

Cryptocoryne undulata 'Broad Leaf' is a red-leaved form of this species, found growing wild in rivers across Sri Lanka and named for its broader leaf blades.
It tolerates a wide range of aquarium conditions, which helps both newcomers and experienced keepers establish a reliable plant between foreground and background planting without needing highly specialised equipment. It suits tanks running on anything from basic lighting through to a fully dosed, CO2-injected setup.
What sets it apart is how its appearance shifts with your tank conditions. Low light and modest nutrient levels keep it growing slowly into a taller, greenish-brown plant, while higher light, added nutrition and CO2 push it towards faster growth with shorter, reddish-brown leaves.
You get the plant in one of two formats: a pack of five established pots ready to go into substrate, or a pack of three 1-2-Grow! cups, with tissue-cultured plants supplied in closed cups rather than already potted.
