After what seems like an eternity the warmer weather is finally triggering the
regrowth of my green and red Barclaya longifolia. Although they are still small you can see
the distinct difference in the colouration of the top surfaces of the leaves.
Green
Barclaya is a beautiful light lime green on the top and pale pink under side.
Magenta
Barclaya has an olive green top and beautiful magenta underside.
Red has a
red top and bottom (mine will go deeper red as it gets bigger and closer to the
light). I might have to move it further away from the monster magenta that is
shading it.
Every book and website will only mention green vs red. I
got the magenta from a forum member on AquariumLife (the forum shut down in 2021).
