Hey Lili;
It's Alternathera, sometimes sold as "red Hygrophilia" of course it's not
Hygrophilia of any species. I'd say it was the easiest of the "tough
high light plants". Without enough light it'll barely grow so if you have
it putting up ne leaves you're good. To propogate iy just cut a stem
back behins where a lot of roots grow outof and plant that part.

It'll grow out of the water if it stays moist enough and makes
blood red leaves. neat plant, one of my favorites.
