Bucephalandra Apple Leaf, is a small species of Bucephalandra that produces small, rounded leaves that are primarily green in color. Newer leaves are lighter in color and mature into darker tones as the plant ages. When you take a closer look, Buce Apple Leaf has a slightly speckled appearance that surely pops when placed under quality aquarium LED lighting fixtures. Like other Bucephalandra, Buce Apple Leaf is epiphytic and grows best when attached to surfaces such as aquarium driftwood or aquascaping stones. We recommend low to medium lighting for this little Buce species along with good flow, quality aquarium plant nutrition and a well-maintained tank environment. CO2 injection isn't necessary for most Buce species, but it will surely help bring out the best colors that are commonly sought after when growing Bucephalandra. 

The stem and rhizome should not be covered when planting as this will cause the plant to rot and wither. Care can be comparable to other popular aquatic plant species such as Anubias and Java Ferns, but Bucephalandra will not tolerate sudden changes well.
