Named after the Kirin — a mythical creature from Asian folklore — this cultivar lives up to its legendary namesake with dramatically wavy, crinkled leaf edges that set it apart from every other Anubias variety. Its deep green, ovate leaves measure just 1–1.5 inches (3–4 cm), making it a compact and detail-rich addition to any aquascape, particularly suited to foreground and midground placement or as an accent piece on driftwood and rocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy We Love It\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eLike all Anubias, the Kirin is slow growing, undemanding, and virtually bulletproof — thriving in low light without CO2 injection and tolerating a wide range of water parameters. Its tough, leathery leaves make it an excellent choice for tanks with plant-eating fish, and its unique texture adds depth and visual interest that smoother leaved plants simply can't replicate. The wavy edges catch light beautifully and give the plant an almost sculptural quality in a well-designed aquascape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare at a Glance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eOrigin: Cultivar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eGrowth rate: Slow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHeight: 1–2 inches (3–5+ cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLight demand: Low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCO2: Not required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant — Do Not Bury the Rhizome\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eAlways attach Anubias 'Kirin' to driftwood, rocks, or hardscape rather than planting it in substrate. If placement in substrate is preferred, ensure the rhizome — the thick horizontal stem from which the leaves emerge — remains fully exposed above the surface. Burying the rhizome will cause it to rot and kill the plant.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tropica","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48425069871326,"sku":null,"price":17.29,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/4768\/4574\/files\/2-11.png?v=1783788072","url":"https:\/\/poseidonaquaticsandplants.com\/products\/anubias-barteri-var-nana-kirin-tropica","provider":"Poseidon Aquatics And Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
