Anubias Barteri Emerald Bloom – Cuboid Nature Aquarium

Anubias Barteri Emerald Bloom

Anubias Barteri Emerald Bloomis a cultivar selected for its particularly vivid, emerald-green coloration and lush, broad-leafed growth. The chart describes it as a bright green, broad-leafed cultivar with dense growth — characteristics that give this plant an unusually vibrant, living quality in the aquarium. For aquarists who want the most visually striking version of the classic Anubias barteri look, Emerald Bloom is an exceptional choice.

Planting tip:Never bury the rhizome in substrate — Anubias Barteri Emerald Bloom should always be attached to driftwood, rock, or other hardscape with the rhizome fully exposed. Use cotton thread or aquarium-safe adhesive to secure it, and the plant will anchor itself naturally over time.

The care requirements for Anubias Barteri Emerald Bloom are the same as any Anubias — low to moderate lighting, no CO₂ requirement, temperatures between 72 and 82°F, and a pH of 6.0 to 7.5. The dense growth noted in the chart means this cultivar develops into a full, lush specimen over time. Best kept on rock or driftwood, as the chart recommends, where the bright emerald foliage can be displayed to best effect.

The rhizome must be kept exposed above the substrate and attached to driftwood or stone. The rich emerald-green color of Emerald Bloom is best displayed under moderate, warm-toned lighting that brings out the depth and vibrancy of the foliage.

In the aquascape, Anubias Barteri Emerald Bloom serves as a premium midground plant whose intense green coloration adds vitality and richness to the overall color palette. It pairs beautifully with red-toned plants like Alternanthera or Ludwigia, as well as with mosses and ferns creating a naturalistic composition. In low-tech tanks, it can be the most vibrant green element in the entire layout. Rich, vibrant, beautiful, and as easy as any plant in the genus.
