 Plant Profile

Common Name: Anubias Wavy 

Anubias Nana Long Wavy on Driftwood is a striking variation that is ready to catch some serious waves in your next aquascape. This plant stands out from the crowd with its small, dark green, oblong leaves that feature a beautifully crinkled, wavy texture and a tough, waxy finish. If you want to add instant character to your foreground without the hassle of gluing or tying, this pre-attached combo is here to help you shore up a stunning layout on day one. The porous natural driftwood base is full of perfect nooks and crannies for the roots, making it a highly adaptable centerpiece that transitions flawlessly between fully submerged aquariums and high-humidity terrariums.

Key Features & Benefits

• The unique oblong and heavily waved foliage adds an intricate, ruffled texture to your foreground that stands out sharply against standard smooth leaves.
• This specimen comes pre-attached to natural driftwood, so you can skip the messy super glue and place it instantly into your aquascape without any floating.
• Its remarkably tough and waxy leaf structure easily resists grazing from active tank inhabitants, keeping your carefully designed layout completely intact.

Care & Planting Instructions

• Place the attached driftwood piece directly onto your substrate or nestled within your hardscape, ensuring you never bury the horizontal rhizome beneath gravel or soil.
• Avoid burying the thick horizontal stem in gravel or soil because restricting water flow around the rhizome will cause the plant to melt, rot, and die.
• Provide low to moderate lighting and optional carbon dioxide injection to achieve faster growth and more robust leaves, though it will happily thrive without high-tech setups.
• Maintain stable water parameters and avoid sudden environmental shifts to ensure your new greenery acclimates smoothly without shedding leaves.
• Position the plant away from intense, direct light and ensure healthy water flow to prevent slow-growing leaves from collecting unwanted spot algae.
• Feel free to customize your new hardscape piece by dressing the remaining wood cracks with your favorite aquatic mosses.
