Rotala boshi "Nanjenshan" is a fast-growing, fine-leaved plant originally from Taiwan. The narrow leaves are reminiscent of those of the Rotala wallichii, but do not turn red like these, but remain mainly green with reddish-colored shoot tips under sufficiently strong lighting. This Rotala grows very bushy and even overhangs under strong light. It withstands temperatures from 4 to 32 degrees and can therefore also be used in cold water aquariums. In terms of keeping, it can be classified as medium difficult, as it has a fairly high light requirement and needs a good supply of nutrients. Visually, it fits best in the middle ground.
