 | Anubias flower |
Brengun   Big Fish Posts: 355 Kudos: 187 Votes: 110 Registered: 22-Jun-2007    | My Anubias has flowered and inside is a fruit not unlike the Monstera Deliciosa or fruit salad plant. I wonder if the anubias fruit is edible?   |

Case in point - deadly nightshade can kill you, tomatoes probably won't. Congrats on getting a flower though. What kind of Anubias is it, barteri? ><> |

| Brengun Big Fish Posts: 355 Kudos: 187 Votes: 110 Registered: 22-Jun-2007 | It is a paco anubias. Somebody ate the fruit and just left the skinny stem. I suspect it was the flying fox shark, since it happens to be his favourite resting place. Any chance he could poop out lots of germinating baby paco anubias?  |
