Barclaya is a rather uncommon, rare bulbaceous aquatic plant. Its long red leaves can grow into a large and stunning specimen when planted along with green stem and carpet plants. Under high light and with the addition of CO2 and fertilizers, the leaves can get a deep maroon red color. Although it can grow in lower light, the leaves tend to be drabber and will turn bronze colored.
Regarding the bulb portion, all bulbs vary in size (0.5-1.5") but do not be deterred by its size! The bulb will continue to grow larger once properly planted. The leaves will sprout and grow to be around 8-12".
