This beautiful variation of Nurii cryptocoryne was found in the wild in Malaysia around 1970. In the aquarophilia, it became popular under the name of "Rose Maiden".

The plant is as easy to cultivate as Wendtii Cryptocoryne and has the same size and the same sheet shape. He will produce, given the time, stolons under the lower layer, often appearing far from the mother plant.

The intensity of the color and the patterns of the leaves depends on light and nutrition.
