 Hemigraphis Alternata Purple Waffle

Terrarium Plants – Not True Aquatic

Strobilanthes Alternata Hemigraphis Alternata, commonly known as red ivy, red-flame ivy, or purple waffle plant, is a member of the family Acanthaceae native to Java. It is a prostrate plant with purple colored leaves

It is a terrarium, vivarium, or bog plant that is sometimes used as aquatic plant decoration even though it s not a true aquatic plant. Under a proper environment, it can only be submerged for several months. After that, it should be grown emerged for a few months again so they can restore the energy they lose before it has the ability and strength to adapt and survive to underwater life for a period of time.

Because of the ability to survive underwater for a long period of time, a lot of hobbyists used this plant as an alternative for other true aquatic plants because they claimed it can survive or even grow a few inches taller and develop roots in their aquarium longer than some of the other true aquatic plants.

When grow emerged, above water. It should be kept in consistently high humidity with wet soil. Especially when they are in the recovery stage or when their environment is changed from underwater to above water.
