Description
Snow White' is an extraordinary, very small-leaved selection of the Dwarf Anubias. This very rare, sought-after Anubias is also known under the trading names "Snow King" and "White Ghost". Especially the newest leaves are almost white, older leaves may also be slightly greenish. The roundish ovate leaf blades are up to 1.5 cm long but mostly stay smaller.
There is not yet much experience with this miniature Anubias as aquarium plant. Generally, Anubias species are known for their easiness and robustness, but Anubias barteri var. nana 'Snow White' is a demanding plant. It is sold as in-vitro plant that may be sensitive to new conditions. Also a complete nutrient supply and CO2 addition are recommendable. The plant grows very slowly. It is best fastened to rock or wood or fixed to the ground. Do not bury the rhizome, otherwise it may rot.
Anubias barteri var. nana 'Snow White' provides a very light colour accent on the hardscape and contrasts well with many other, mostly dark coloured epiphytes. With its small size it also fits well in nano aquariums.
