Description

Bolbitis Heudelotii, commonly referred to as African Water Fern, is a striking plant native to Africa. Known for its unique, fern-like leaves, this plant adds a touch of elegance and a natural aesthetic to your aquarium. It grows slowly, producing lush green foliage that thrives in low to moderate lighting conditions, making it perfect for low-tech setups.

Bolbitis Heudelotii can be easily attached to rocks, driftwood, or other hardscapes, as it prefers to grow anchored rather than rooted in the substrate. This plant’s slow growth makes it ideal for aquascapers who enjoy the art of creating well-balanced, natural-looking tanks. Despite its slow pace, Bolbitis Heudelotii’s beauty is worth the wait, and its fern-like fronds create a dramatic effect when grown in groups or among other plants.
