Bucephalandra 'Red Mini'
Description Buce Red Mini is a farm grown variant of Bucephalandra that has just recently been propagated for in vitro growth.. This is a very rare plant, which is made even more rare by the fact that its grown in tissue culture. As the name suggests, it has very small leaves which can develop a nice reddish purple tint when grown submerged over a long period of time. Like all Buce, this plant grows extremely slow and it can take almost half a year for this tissue culture cup to grow in. It can be propagated by cutting the rhizome and attached to driftwood and rocks using super glue gel or thread.
