Rotala macrandra 'Narrow Leaf', sometimes known as Rotala 'Magenta' or Rotala macrandra 'Florida', is a mutation of Rotala macrandra. The mutation is not entirely stable, however, as stems of this plant occasionally produce broad leaved side shoots. This cultivar is one of the most commonly found Rotala sp. in the trade.

R. macrandra 'Narrow Leaf' is slightly less sensitive to growing conditions than its broad leaved counterpart. However, it requires much the same conditions. Lighting should be medium to intense or the bottom portions of the stems will turn black and melt away. CO2 injection is essential for the long term health and vigor of this plant, along with carefully controlled nitrate (5-15ppm) and phosphate (1-2ppm) levels. High phosphate levels will result in the most compact, reddest growth as with most red Rotala sp. If it is suffering from an iron deficiency, this plant will turn pale and the death of the stem will result if iron is not dosed in greater quantity.

This Rotala macrandra var. grows upwards, producing many side shoots along the way toward the surface. If allowed to grow along the water's surface, it will produce them along every node. To prune this plant, top and either replant the tops or leave the rooted portions in place. Propagation is simple, pluck a side shoot from the mother plant and plant it in the substrate where it will soon take root.

This small leaved red stem plant has a lot of potential in aquascaping. It's upright growth habit makes it superior to the similarly textured Ludwigia arcuata for certain background applications. It is most useful in small planted aquariums, where it can add a bright, yet not overwhelming, splash of red to a small layout.
