Bucephalandra Brownie ‘Ghost’
The Bucephalandra brownie ‘Ghost’ is a rare and highly desirable aquatic plant, admired for its dark, almost black-green leaves that sometimes shimmer with a subtle, iridescent glow—giving it its distinctive “ghostly” appearance.
Ghostly Iridescence: The leaves of the ‘Ghost’ variant feature a deep green-to-black coloration with a soft, metallic shimmer that changes under different lighting angles.
Slow-Growing Beauty: Minimal maintenance is required as this plant grows slowly, remaining compact and elegant over time.
Versatile Placement: Best suited for attaching to driftwood, rocks, or other hardscape elements, adding depth and character to any aquascape.
Lighting: Thrives in low to moderate lighting. High light may encourage algae, so shaded or dimly lit areas are ideal.
CO₂: Not strictly necessary but can enhance growth, color vibrancy, and overall health in higher-tech setups.
Water Parameters: Highly adaptable. Prefers a pH between 6.0–7.5 and temperatures of 22–28 °C.
Trimming: Very little trimming is needed. Propagation is done by gently dividing the rhizome.
Do not bury the rhizome—attach it securely to driftwood, rocks, or other hardscape with fishing line, thread, or plant glue until it anchors itself naturally.
Place in shaded areas of your aquarium to bring out its signature ghostly shimmer and prevent algae buildup.
