Category: Aquarium Plants

Aquarium plant from tissue culture in closed cup.

Though Bucephalandras are from Asia and Anubias fom Africa, they have a lot in common, including how to grow them. 

Bucephalandra sp. 'Needle leaf' has a bit higher demands than the 'diabolica' and pygmaeae, but is still a very easy plant to grow. Some added CO2 and a little more light is beneficial. Immersed leaves are green, elongated and slightly waved, showing numerous tiny, white dots. Each leaf is less than 0.5 cm broad and between 1 and 2 cm long. Youngest parts of the rhizome display a nice, red colour. Growth is slow. 

The creeping rhizome must not be covered when planting, otherwise the plant will rot and die.

Hazel E. ★★★★★

The closed tissue culture cup kept the plant perfectly hydrated, and the needle-thin leaves already have that classic Bucephalandra texture. Rooted and attached to my driftwood within a week, and it’s clearly the start of a slow, steady cluster.

Miles ★★★★★

The closed cup keeps everything fresh and clean, and each plant came out with healthy, dense roots that anchored fast to the driftwood. It’s already pushing new needle-like leaves after just a week, which is exactly what I hoped for.

Ruby ★★★★★

Finally got this in the tank and the tissue culture was clean with no melt. The needle leaves are already anchoring to my driftwood after a few days, and the deep green color is really popping.
