Space is to small for swords. I do want something vertical. Most stem plants die on me, like I said I don't usually do ferts. I love the way they look just can't seem to keep them alive. I had a high tech tank years ago but got tired of dosing and didn't and still don't want to put in the effort on dry ferts.Red melon sword?? It's not super red but it does have some red.
The sword is a bushy plant, are you wanting more of a vertical plant?
