Rotala 'H'Ra' is related to Rotala rotundifolia, but with sufficiently bright lighting and the addition of CO2, it develops creeping shoots that grow into a beautiful, robust carpet. When there is less light, the stems grow upright; their orange-red leaf tip color develops as they grow. Since it can quickly reach a height of 20cm, the middle ground is an ideal place to unfold its bushy structure.
