Bucephalandra Alamanda - AQ1672

Bucephalandra 'Alamanda' is a beautiful and compact variety of the Bucephalandra species, known for its unique wavy leaves that range in color from deep green to bluish hues, often with subtle iridescent tones. This plant is perfect for foreground to midground placement in aquascapes, where its slow-growing nature and striking appearance make it a favorite among aquarists. Bucephalandra 'Alamanda' thrives in low to moderate light conditions, and although it does not require CO2, adding CO2 and maintaining stable water parameters can enhance its growth and leaf coloration. Like most Bucephalandra species, it grows best when attached to rocks, driftwood, or other hardscape elements, as burying the rhizome in the substrate may cause it to rot. With its slow growth rate and ability to adapt to a wide range of water conditions, Bucephalandra 'Alamanda' is ideal for both beginner and experienced aquarists who want to add a unique and low-maintenance plant to their aquarium.
