A jewel from the rivers of Borneo. Bucephalandra Brownie Phoenix is a sought-after rheophyte prized for its compact growth and attractive leaf coloration that can display iridescent shimmer under quality lighting.
Attach to rock or driftwood — never bury the rhizome. Provide gentle flow and stable parameters for best coloration. Light liquid fertilizer enhances iridescence.
✂️ Propagation: Divide rhizome when new growth has 5+ leaves. Easy.
