Bucephalandra Skeleton King Narrow Leaf
The Bucephalandra Skeleton King 'Narrow Leaf' is a sleeker, more elongated take on the iconic Skeleton King line. It carries the same boldly raised skeletal veining the family is known for, but with longer, narrower leaves that add a more delicate, flowing texture to your aquascape.
A great entry point into the Skeleton King collection — the Narrow Leaf is more readily available than its rarer siblings, while still delivering that unmistakable architectural detail collectors love.
