Bucephalandra Brownie Blue - Pot

Bucephalandra Brownie Blue is a hobbyist favourite for its deep, moody colouration — leaves shift between brown, bronze and a distinctive blue-green iridescence depending on lighting and maturity. Sold as an established potted plant.

Like all Bucephalandra, this is an epiphyte: attach the rhizome to driftwood or stone rather than burying it. Burying the rhizome in substrate will cause it to rot. Glue or thread works equally well for mounting.
