Bucephalandra Royal
Bucephalandra ‘Royal’
Bucephalandra Royal is an attractive variety featuring rich green foliage with beautifully textured, gently wavy leaves. Its compact yet bushy growth habit makes it an excellent choice for adding detail and depth to driftwood, rockwork and shaded areas of an aquascape.
These plants are supplied emersed grown and will gradually transition to their submerged form once introduced to the aquarium. Some older emersed leaves may deteriorate or melt during this adjustment period while the plant produces fresh submerged foliage.
Like other Bucephalandra, Royal is a slow-growing rhizome plant and should be attached to rock or driftwood with the rhizome kept exposed rather than buried.
