Cryptocoryne wendtii ‘Florida Sunset’

A few months ago, I’ve mentioned that Florida Aquatic Nurseries had started producing a new varigated cultivar of Cryptocoryne wendtii, which they had named ‘Florida Sunset’. Though still being produced in limited quantities, its finally becoming available at local stores. I picked one up yesterday. The leaves are highly varigated, brown, green, cream and pink colors. Here’s a close up of one of the leaves.

Bonus – it already had a spathe one it.

It looks nice! Wonder how it’ll look submersed.
