Description
Alternanthera reineckii var. ‘roseafolia’ is a very decorative “red” plant. Alternanthera reineckii has a bronze color on top of the leaf and the deep purple colored underside of the leaf. Alternanthera reineckii offers a nice contrast to the mostly green plants in an aquarium. Although most red aquarium plants are somewhat difficult to grow in an aquarium, Alternanthera reineckii is relatively easy. With adequate light and fertilizer Alternanthera reineckii grows vigorously and with good color and adding CO2 will make these plants bright red.

Not too bad at all
They arrived in the condition shown in the picture. They did lose quite a bit of leaves while being planted, but for the most part, they are doing very well in a co2 injected 55 gallon tank. Just a few melting leaves, which is to be expected while acclimating to their new surroundings. I definitely recommend giving them a good rinsing to get rid of all the loose debris.

Very Poor Quality
Intended for use in my aquarium. Plant arrived with sparse quantity per bunch plus almost all the leaves fell off in shipping. What was left was very small and all curled up. No red color on any of the leaves. Also no roots whatsoever. Plants look like the were cut on both sides, top and bottom. Very poor condition.

Is this even the same plant?
Had to ask for a replacement; first plant melted back and never rooted and disintegrated within a few days. Second plant came and is in better shape, but it’s straight green, no red anywhere whatsoever. Hopefully it’s actually what I bought.

Looks good!
Good looking plants when arrived. I got 1 bundle which is about 5 stems in this bunch, each between 5 and 7 inches long. I live in SoCal so I was careful to get them out of my hot mailbox right away when delivered. Almost no shrinkage when planted in my co2 injected 15 gal and they rooted right away. They definitely require a lot of iron supplementation. I use all-in-one liquid and seachem root tabs, but once you figure out the balance of your fertilizer they are good to go. I have had them for about a month and the newest leaves are getting deep pink. They are still the original stem, i haven’t trimmed and replanted any of the offshoot stalks yet. I wanted to make sure the original stems rooted good and strong before I go cutting at them. I have trimmed off the roots that grow on the upper stem. I get better color that way versus not trimming them. Overall I’m happy with these plants from this grower. I would order again.

Arrived alive and healthy
The packing was a sealed plastic bag (holds moisture well) and USPS delivered quickly through it went from west to east coast. The top of the leaves are GREEN so don't expect a fully violet plant. The underside is the violet-like color. A few more stems would make it a better deal (I got 7) so only 4 stars on value (shipping costs as much as the plant.) Waited 4 days before review and the plant still looks fully healthy so I feel this is a healthy bundle (75 F, drip fert, and CO2.)

Pretty color but broke apart at every joint on the stems! What a mess! Never again for this one!
I was very disappointed in this species of aquatic plant for my aquarium. I wanted a little color besides greens of my other plants so I bought this one. Yes, the color was pretty but at every joint along the stems the plant fell apart and made a huge mess in the aquarium. I will never purchase this variety again! Waste of money but a huge waste of time and work to clean up the mess!

Not rooted
This is just a bunch of recently trimmed stems sent to you in a plastic bag. There's no roots on the stems and half of the leaves were dead on arrival, with more falling off as you try to put them in water. I tried planting the stems in my tank anyway but it's been a day and the rest of the leaves are dying and falling off. Looks nothing like the photos and is a waste of money.

BEAUTIFUL !!! ( REVIEW # DAYS LATER )
These came in looking just like the photo ( not quite as red ), but very large plants, especially the Red Flame Sword which is 12" tall. There were several stems, full of leaves ,on the Alternanthera Roseafolia bundle, and the stems were 10" long. When I need more plants, I will definitely look to see what this company has to offer, I am very happy with these plants. Yes, they were shipped in a plastic bag - in a box, and the plants were damp, they also smelled fresh, how else would they be shipped, can't see any snails either. The stems of the Alternanthera are now PURPLE, I hate the color purple, the color change is after 3 days of planting. The leaves are now pale green. They were reddish in color , when first planted when they first arrived. I would not have purchased if I knew they were going to be PURPLE.
