Anubias barteri nana bonsai Tissue Culture
Aquatic Plants, BRANDS, Foreground Plants, Midground Plants, Tissue Culture Plants, TropicaAnubias barteri nana bonsai Tissue Culture
The rhizome will be 10-15 cm or more. It grows slowly, and the leaves survive for several years, giving slow-growing algae the chance to become established. The best result is achieved by planting on a stone or tree root. Fishing line can be used to attach the plant until it gains a hold. If planted on the bottom the rhizome must not be covered because it tends to rot. It flowers frequently under water. It is not eaten by herbivorous fish.
