i now have *three* flowers on my anubias right now i have no idea what is making this thing go so crazy, i haven't really changed anything except its location. i moved it from under the cf lights to my "normal" t8 fixture. it had the 2 flowers forming when i first moved it, but i noticed the third today, and i think a fourth might be growing out of the back.

Nice one Moondog

Never had an Anubias flower yet. But my Apon.Crispus threw out a large flower stalk at the weekend. Might beable to get some seeds from it

I think I have mentioned this before My Anubias seem to flower every now and again for no apprent reason.

As an Orchid grower of many years similar thing happen but this is usually controlled by the climatic conditions.

Remember this though, flowers only flower for a reason and that is certainly not for you, it is so that they can reproduce and keep the species going.

Plants are very complex and takes a life time just to study one species.

Saying all that well done.

Now use that new camera for some photos.
