    I found this Bucephalandra at seaview in a very pathetic state. Now it has bounced back and is starting to send out roots and new leaves. It has green leaves with slight marbling on It.

    This is often mis-label as bucephalandra at LFS. But it is piptospatha ridleyi, belongs to the same Schismatoglottidae(Araceae) family. the coloration lose to bucephalandra and so far i have not seen blue/ red /pink colored leaves for them. Not as highly sought after.

    Can this plant survive submerged in water? I really like the mottled leaves. Well, i did not pay much for it so no heartache, i wonder where i can find cheap bucephalandras?

    Can give you a few rhizomes to try out first since you mentioned you're new to planted tanks. Plants not in optimum condition yet but definitely growing. Feel free to contact me at 83283798 if you're interested.
