Crypt Undulata (Cryptocoryne undulata)

Cryptocoryne Undulata is a hardy rosette plant with narrow, gently rippled leaves that range from green to bronze or reddish-brown. Its textured foliage gives it a natural, layered appearance and makes it a strong choice for the foreground or midground of a freshwater aquarium.

It adapts well to low-to-moderate lighting and does not require injected CO₂. A nutrient-rich substrate or occasional root tabs will support steady growth. Like many crypts, it may temporarily lose leaves after being moved, but usually recovers once established.
