Hi,

Welcome to APC!

True C. griffithii is a beautiful plant. Please read more about it here: http://132.229.93.11/Cryptocoryne/Gallery/gri/gri.html.

If they are small, you need to grow them out to get a better feel for whether they are truly griffithii. If so, the leaves will get to be 5-7 inches long after a while. The leaves have a tendency to fall horizontally so you need to give it room. Plants around it would be shaded. It is a relatively slow grower however.

In my experience, the leaves are dull to bright green on top and pink to red underneath. It is a nice plant.
