Anubias gracilis

West Africa is home to several species of Anubias, including this one.

The 5-10 cm triangular leaves on long leaf stalks make Anubias Gracilis one of the most elegant. It is hardy and tolerant, a very good plant for beginners. The plant can grow on rocks or wood. If planted deep, the rhizome, from which leaves and roots emerge, should not be covered. If it is, the entire plant will rot and die.

Anubias Gracilis can grow out of water, but it will reach a significant size.
