Lobelia cardinalis

Lobelia cardinalis grows in the wild in North America. In the nursery, this plant is cultivated in swamp areas, forming dark green leaves underneath purple. The leaves in aquariums turn into a beautiful shade of light green, 10-30 cm long and 5-10 cm wide. It is widely used in Dutch aquariums in what is called "plant streets." It grows in open aquariums above the water surface, where it forms very beautiful crimson flowers and the leaves regain their color, and it can be used in garden ponds.
