Echinodorus 'AC Sunrise' (Emersed)

Echinodorus 'AC Sunrise' is a stunning sword plant prized for its vibrant green foliage with striking red, bronze, and orange tones developing under stronger lighting. Its broad leaves and colourful appearance make it an excellent centrepiece plant for planted aquariums, aquascapes, and larger display tanks.

As a hardy and adaptable sword plant, Echinodorus 'AC Sunrise' is suitable for both beginner and experienced aquascapers. This emersed-grown specimen develops strong root systems and transitions well into aquarium conditions with proper care.
