**Echinodorus 'Red Diamond' – Ruby red beauty from Ukraine**
Echinodorus 'Red Diamond' probably originated from a cross between Echinodorus horemanni 'Red' and Echinodorus x barthii in a Ukrainian culture. This attractive sword plant impresses with its ruby-red leaves, which can reach a length of 15-25 cm.
**Compact size and ideal conditions:**
In contrast to many other Echinodorus species, 'Red Diamond' remains compact and is therefore particularly suitable as a solitary plant, even in smaller aquariums. A nutrient-rich substrate supports strong growth, while good lighting conditions promote the development of the intense ruby-red color.
