A beautiful, dark-green variety of Echinodorus 'Ozelot'. The dark spots form a bigger contrast on the light leaves. The leaf margin is fluted. A nutritious bottom promotes growth. It is an easy and highly recommended plant, which thrives in almost all conditions.

Echinodorus 'Ozelot' is a hybrid between Echinodorus schlueteri 'Leopard' and Echinodorus barthii. It is beautiful with elliptical black spotted red-brownish leaves and a very short petiole. In contrast to many other spotted and flecked plants Echinodorus 'Ozelot' maintains the spots regardless of light intensity and other environmental factors. Older leaves, however, tends to have dark-red spots rather than deep black as in the younger leaves. Echinodorus 'Ozelot' is a sturdy plant and accepts most environmental conditions. If the conditions are sub optimal the plant just grow more slowly and a bit smaller.
