The landscape

Behind the layout

Fast-growing background plants build a generous green backdrop in this 180-litre Tropica display. Echinodorus and Vallisneria create height, while compact Anubias occupy sheltered spaces beneath them.

Lilaeopsis and Hydrocotyle bring planting forward into the brighter foreground. Red Alternanthera Rosanervig and Ludwigia provide contrasting focal points among the foliage.
