What is Mosaic Plant Aquarium?

Ludwigia Sedioides is native to South
America — found naturally in tropical
rivers and lakes of Brazil and Venezuela
where it creates spectacular floating
displays on calm water surfaces with
its distinctive geometric leaf rosettes.
The common name Mosaic Plant perfectly
describes the tile-like pattern created
by its precisely arranged diamond-shaped
leaves in each individual rosette.

This mosaic plant aquarium specimen is
primarily a surface floating plant — best
displayed in large ponds or open-top
aquariums where the floating geometric
rosettes can be viewed and appreciated
from above. In large open-top aquariums
it creates an extraordinary surface display
that is completely unlike any other aquatic
plant available in the hobby.

How to Use Mosaic Plant Aquarium

Simply place this mosaic plant aquarium
specimen on the surface of calm pond or
aquarium water and it will float naturally.
This plant prefers calm water with minimal
surface agitation — strong surface ripples
can prevent the rosettes from displaying
their characteristic flat geometric form.

For best results grow this mosaic plant
aquarium specimen in a sunny outdoor
garden pond where it receives direct
natural sunlight for maximum leaf
colouration and growth rate. The
geometric rosettes become most vivid
and impressive under natural outdoor
lighting in warm conditions.
