Description

It is a dwarf variety of Anubias barteri.[2] This plant's thick short-stemmed dark green leaves are some of the smallest and most compact in the Anubias genus, growing only to 3.2 inches (8 cm) for a total height of 4.7 inches (12 cm).[1]

A variation of Anubias barteri var. nana known as Anubias barteri var. nana gold is available in the aquarium trade, it has light green to golden leaves.[2]

Cultivation

Like most Anubias species, this plant grows well partially and fully submersed and the rhizome must be above the substrate, attached to rocks or wood. It grows well in a range of lighting and has a temperature range of 68-82 degrees F (20-28 degrees C). It can be propagated by dividing the rhizome or by separating side shoots.[2]
