According to , one of the prominent botanists studying and classifying species, Bucephalandra is not a truly aquatic plant. Most Bucephalandras are rheophytes (growing in fast moving waters, such as under waterfalls) attached to rocks, and they spend most of their time above water, outside of rain seasons. Like many hobbyists, though, I grow my Bucephalandras permanently submerged. I think some species handle submerged growth better than others. For example, look at the vibrant colors of this specimen! The clump growing behind it spread from a single plant that I attached to a lava rock two years ago.
