Description
Background

Anubias nana 'Petite' is a miniature cultivar of the iconic Anubias nana. It quickly gained popularity for its smaller size and is now a staple within the hobby. Its adaptability and unique size makes it a perfect choice to grow in any setups. With thick, green leaves, it grows slowly, forming dense bushes.

Placed in the midground or foreground, its dense growth adds a jungle style that pairs well with driftwoods and hardscape. It also scales well with other bigger sized Anubias to create depth. Excellent in shaded zones of Nature-style, jungle-inspired, or paludarium layouts, especially on wood or rock anchors.

Directions

Attach the plant to hardscape such as driftwood or rocks, allowing the rhizome to be exposed to flowing water. This plant is well-suited for low-light set ups and does not mind being shaded by other plants. To propagate, cut the rhizome with at least three leaves and reattach it to hardscape.
