✨The astringent brown creates a sense of calm. A plant with a low center of gravity that is easy to use.
✨Cephalandra sp. Brownie Cupuas is characterized by brown to dark-toned leaves, and has an appealing, subdued, and sophisticated look. The leaves have a moist texture, creating a good shadow effect, adding depth and stability to the aquascape.
Because it is not too conspicuous, it is particularly effective at the base of a mainstay Bucepha or in an arrangement that tightens the overall look.

. Growth rate: Slow (suitable for long-term care)
. Difficulty of cultivation: Low to medium
. Recommended placement: Foreground to midground, in the shade of rockwork, at the base of driftwood.
[Growing Guidelines]
Light intensity: Weak to medium (strong light may cause the color to become lighter)

It pairs well with dark-colored Bucepha and Cephalandra, making it easy to coordinate the whole.
It also tightens up the layout when used as a "receptacle" for brightly colored plants.
