So… this might be common knowledge to most of y’all, but I’m still kind of blown away. A couple weeks ago I was cleaning my aquarium and noticed my golden anubias was growing what looked like a little peace-lily-style flower stem — and last night the bud finally bloomed underwater!
I knew anubias were hardy, beautiful plants, but I genuinely had no idea they produced flowers, let alone ones that can open beneath the surface. I’ve since learned they’re closely related to peace lilies, which somehow makes them even cooler to me.
Anyway, it absolutely made my night, and I figured I’d share the excitement with folks who’d appreciate it.
If you’ve ever had aquarium plants flower underwater, I’d love to see pics or hear your stories! What other plants surprise us like this?

That’s awesome! Looks exactly like mine that just bloomed a few weeks ago as well. Unfortunately the bladder snails overran it, and it rotted away. I wonder if it tastes good to snails
