A sculptural centrepiece for vivariums, the planted land zone of a paludarium, or a larger terrarium. The water-holding cup suits dart-frog and reptile vivariums. Grow it emersed, above the waterline — it is not an aquatic plant.

Its bold, glossy form gives a premium, architectural look that anchors a whole layout.
