Description
This decorative, quite large Bucephalandra variant is produced in an Indonesian water plant nursery under the trading name "Aragon". Its exact origin and species belonging is unknown to us, but as well as all Bucephalandras, it originates from Borneo island, growing as a rheophyte (adapted to strong current) on rock in the flood zone of rainforest streams. Bucephalandra sp. "Aragon" has broad, slightly wavy, about 4,5 cm long leaves in dark green to brownish tones on a strong rhizome.
Bucephalandra species and forms are primarily epiphytes on rock or wood where they attach themselves by their roots. They can also be fixed to the bottom, however the rhizome must not be buried to avoid rotting. The plant will root on its own and benefit from the nutrients in the substrate. The growth is generally slow to very slow.
Bucephalandras cope with poor light conditions, however they develop their most beautiful look with medium lighting, good water current and constant nutrient and CO2 supply. They also tolerate strong lighting, sufficient CO2 and nutrient supply provided. The favourable temperature range is about 20 to 27°C.
We recommend to put Bucephalandras into already cycled aquariums. It is best to leave the plants in peace so they can grow. Sudden changes of parameters may lead to shedding of leaves, normally, however, the plants regrow slowly and produce new shoots on the rhizome. Bucephalandras are easily propagated by cutting terminal and side shoots that also promotes the ramification of the plant.

I have to say, I hadn't expected such a beautiful Bucephalandra, but underwater it's a real eye-catcher, great.

Perfekt
Muss sagen eine wunderschöne Bucephalandra hätte ich nicht erwartet aber unter Wasser ein echter Hingucker super.
A really full cup, 8 rhizomes, wonderful coloration, big plants already in the cup and therefore a lot of plant mass right from the start (for a cup)

Hübsche Buce
Richtig voller Becher 8 Rhizome, wundervolle Färbung, große Pflanzen bereits im Becher schon und daher schon anfänglich viel Pflanzenmasse (für den Becher gesehen)
Very beautiful, relatively large plant. Two plants were in the bunch, each approx. 10 cm long incl. flower. I would buy it again if needed.
Highly recommend.
