The uncommon Staurogyne Purple differs from the commonly available Staurogyne Repens by having the potential to grow leaves with purple shades when grown under high lighting intensity. It can still grow fine under lower lighting level but the purple tone may not be visible. 

Another difference is this Staurogyne Purple grows larger leaves than the common Staurogyne Tropica.

It is not common for a foreground plant to be able to grow purplish leaves and hence, Staurogyne Purple is one of a kind.

In our opinion, it can be used as a foreground or midground feature plant especially if it is grown under high lighting.

This plant grown by Aquarzon is 100% submersed grown indoor and is very clean, free from weeds and outdoor pests. It is not tissue culture or emersed grown stock which can suffer transitional melting issues when planted in an aquarium. Our indoor submersed grown stock is in very healthy condition and ready to be planted straight in an aquarium.
