    Devils eye photos.
    This would have to be my favorite sword. the new growth is intense red which fades through all the autum colors (reds, orange yellow) and then to deep green.
    Under proper conditions (good light and IRON) the veins go DEEP RED on the bright green leaf. (these plants are grown in a tank limited by iron to keep hair algae at bay)
