    Rare plants from Poland

    that's why I try to collect only varieties with a unique appearance. I do not like similar varieties that I am not able to recognize. And there are certainly more than a hundred such unique varieties, despite the existence of a thousand trade names.

    Rare plants from Poland

    Bucephalandra „Paris” A very colorful variety with a graceful name. At first, it was difficult to adapt from the emergence version, but after many months under water, it grew without problems. Bucephalandra „Mini Blue Velvet” A nice variety with a non-provocative but balanced color scheme.

    Any tips for glueing moss to wood?

    But is that superglue does not destroy the structure of moss? I know that it can dissolve some plastics materials, so I would hesitate to use it with plants.
