New member of our Cyperaceae collection from Borneo, characterized by arching, wide strap foliage in nice iridescent blue color, while the lower part leaves form an elegant fan as it grows, Tiny cluster flower stalks borne along stems. The blue color occurs in this species does not depends on light angle and easier to maintain without much effort!
Unlike Mapania caudata or Mapania enodis, this species is a fairly compact grower when compared with those more common species in cultivation--can grow to just 6" in height and forms a tight clump in a few years. Thus, this should be a good candidate for medium to larger size terrariums or humid greenhouse. Very coarse, porous media such as high quality perlite or pumice is recommended.
Offered are rhizome divisions, established in 4" pot
