Bolbitis Difformis Mini is well-suited for terrariums, vivariums and paludariums.

Bolbitis Difformis ‘Mini' is a small leaf variation of Bolbitis Heudelotii or Heteroclita. This variation is relatively slow growing with ornamental foliage that adds interesting texture to any planted setup. Care requirements are comparable to Java Fern, Anubias and Bucephalandra species. Bolbitis Mini is an epiphytic species and will sprout new growth via fiddle leaf heads from its rhizomes. This plant can be attached directly onto driftwood or porous stone and will grow happily as long as nutrients are available. Larger plants can be propagated by dividing along the rhizome and replanting or reattaching onto wood or stone.
