Cardinal Plant (scientific name: Lobelia Cardinalis) catches your attention through its coloration ‘transformation’ from bright green to unusual red-purple (mostly seen in its emersed form) on the undersides of the leaves. Short with thick stems, the plant can either grow emersed or submerged and adapt to a wide range of aquarium conditions.
It is best known for another name ‘Cardinal Flower’ as you may see it develops the bright red flower in its emersed form.
The plant is around 4 – 12 inches (10 – 30 cm) tall which makes it an excellent foreground or midground species.
