Anubias ‘Chili Jalapeño’ is a unique, slow-growing rhizome plant in the Anubias barteri family, prized for its compact stature, firm leaves, and distinctive coloration. Unlike typical Anubias varieties, this cultivar features dense, oval leaves with a subtle, spicy twist—rich dark green with hints of bronze tones, especially under high-intensity or spectrum-balanced lighting.
Native to West Africa in origin, Anubias are well-known for their ability to grow emersed or submerged, attach to hardscape, and resist algae buildup thanks to their thick leaf surfaces. The ‘Chili Jalapeño’ cultivar is a rare and visually striking variation, bred for ornamental appeal and prized in aquascaping competitions and shrimp tanks.
