Anyone know the species of this sword plant. New leaves are reddish and mature leaves are green. I can get more pic.s if needed. Thank you.

I did search for an ID before posting and was originally thinking Echinodorus cordifolius aka Radican sword. My original thought was melon, but it seems too large. None of the stems are less than 1ft and the leaves are close to a ft. themselves.
It was sold to me as an "oriental sword" about 6 months ago.
Melon Swords say they get to 1'8" ?
