Bucephalandra Brown Amanda
Bucephalandra Brown Amanda is a popular aquatic plant species originating from Borneo, Indonesia. Here are some key characteristics and care requirements for this plant:Appearance and Growth:
- It's a small, slow-growing epiphytic plant with attractive foliage
- Leaves can display various colors, including shades of brown, green, and purple, often with a metallic sheen
- The plant typically reaches a maximum size of about 2 inches
Unlike virtually every online store all of my Buce Brown Amanda is grown submerged (unless noted). This makes the transition to your tank easier. This particular variant has been growing submerged in my tank since 2020.
I originally bought these emersed and have been careful in keeping each variant in it's own tank. I am not an expert at distinguishing variants of buce as a lot are very similar but I can guarantee that at least I'm passing along what was sold to me with the correct name.
Attach the rhizome directly to driftwood or rocks using super glue gel or cotton thread. Never bury the rhizome in substrate — this causes rot. Within a few weeks the roots will anchor naturally and the glue or thread becomes unnecessary.
