Hello everyone! A post on this beautiful Bucephelandra is up on my blog AquaBiota! Here is an excerpt of what you'll find there, for the rest click on the link below! Thank you for taking the time to check out this post ☺ Enjoy!

This particular variety actually is the 1st of (at this time) 3 different varieties of B."Sekadau". There is also #2 and #3, but today I will just be covering #1. It was collected by a shop here in Japan by the name of "Team Borneo". In Japan their reputation is basically that they are well known for collecting a plethora of rare, unusual, and new freshwater plants and fish. They collected this one in Western Kalimantan in an area named "Sekadau".

The thing about Bucephelandra that commands a higher price, is that they are so slow-growing that they can't be typically massed-up in a fast manner (like most farmed stem plants) which is what would lower the price, at least not yet. So those people who are selling them, have invested a good amount of time into the pieces they are selling, and selling them for the amount of a stem plant is just not worth the time-invested. Of course we would all like to see them cheaper :)
