Description: 

Anubias "nangi" is a hybrid of A. barteri var. nana and A. gilletii that was created in cultivation by Robert A. Gasser (1922-2002, former owner of "Quality Aquarium Plants" nursery, Florida). This plant has been in trade since 1986 im Handel, however, nowadays it is a little-known rarity.
It differs from similar varieties of A. barteri as well as from A. heterophylla by a wide-lanceolate acuminate leaf form. The leaves are slightly bullous, shiny and of a dark green colour.

A. "nangi" is a well-growing highly recommendable Anubias form with low demands on cultivation.
