Anubias barteri var. caladiifolia gives planted-tank keepers a midground plant that holds a full, consistent look, since each heart-shaped leaf lives for several years rather than dying back quickly. Growth itself is slow, but that leaf longevity still lets a single planting spread into an established group over time. It suits newcomers and experienced aquascapers alike.
Anubias barteri var. caladiifolia is a heart-leaved cultivar of Anubias barteri, propagated from tissue culture rather than wild-collected. The long leaf life helps the plant build into a dense, established group despite its naturally slow growth, giving midground planting that holds its shape over time. It suits both beginner planters and experienced aquascapers working on a midground layer.
Because each leaf persists for several years instead of dying back quickly, a group can spread past 50 cm wide within a few years, even though new growth appears slowly. The result is a planting that keeps filling out and thickening over time rather than staying at its original size.
You can choose a pack of five standard pots or a single XL mother plant, which is a larger, more established specimen supplied in a 9 cm square pot. What sets this variety apart is the combination of heart-shaped foliage and long-lived leaves, which let slow growth still result in full, well-established groups over a few years.
