Anubias barteri var. caladiifolia is a slow-growing aquarium and paludarium plant from the Arum family, grown for its large, lobed leaves. The key to growing it is to keep the rhizome above the substrate, attached to rock or wood, rather than buried.
Anubias barteri var. caladiifolia was first described by Adolf Engler in 1915.
Like most Anubias species, this plant grows well partially and fully submersed and the rhizome must be above the substrate, attached to rocks or wood. It grows well in a range of lighting and prefers a temperature range of 22-28 degrees C. It can be propagated by dividing the rhizome or by separating side shoots.
