Description
The leaves of this rather unknown Java fern variant are comparable to those of M. pteropus 'Narrow' in form and size, however, they have an interesting coloration. The plant has narrow lanceolate leaves around 15-25 cm in length and 18-23 mm in width. The tips and the central vein of the young leaves are brown-orange or brownish-red, similar to the larger much more wide-leaved M. pteropus 'Red' from southern Thailand. Older leaves are of a medium to light green.
Please be aware that the bunch/potted variation of this plant could contain snails and other invertebrates.

I Received two beautiful bunches of this microsurom and was simply amazed by how intriguingly gorgeous they are. (read more)

I bought two in vitro, the quality was very bad in both containers, very different from the website photo. (read more)

OK, It is said "portion" in the description, nevertheless what you receive is far...far away from the picture depicted and really too expensive for the quantity/quality. (read more)
