Rotala Nanjenshan (Rotala sp. 'Nanjenshan') is a delicate freshwater stem plant known for its fine, needle-like leaves and soft, wispy appearance. Its leaves can range from light green to pink and orange-red, with stronger lighting and CO₂ encouraging more intense coloration. Rotala Nanjenshan is best suited to planted aquariums where it can receive consistent nutrients and good water circulation.
