Care Instructions:
- Lighting: Moderate to high lighting is ideal. Enhanced lighting will bring out the plant's vibrant colors and promote healthy growth.

- Substrate: No special substrate is required since the plant is already attached to driftwood. This makes it easy to relocate and position as needed.
- Fertilization: Occasional supplementation with liquid fertilizers can enhance growth and coloration. CO2 supplementation, while not necessary, can further boost plant health and vitality.
- Maintenance: Regularly trim overgrown stems to maintain the desired shape and prevent the plant from overshadowing other aquarium plants.
