✂️ Care

Tie the plant to wood or stone with string or wire — Bucephalandra will attach itself after a few weeks. Avoid fully burying the rhizome in the substrate. Good water flow prevents algae growth on the slow-growing leaves.

💡 Planter's Tip

Combine with mosses or Anubias nana for a natural, layered hardscape. Ideal for wabi-kusa and nano aquariums.
