Biophytum zenkeri is a rare and graceful tropical plant native to West and Central Africa, known for its delicate, palm-like rosettes of finely divided compound leaves. Each leaf radiates from a central base, creating a symmetrical, fern-like display that adds texture and elegance to terrariums or indoor collections. Tiny yellow or white star-shaped flowers may appear at the base of the leaves, offering subtle charm throughout the year.
This species thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers consistently moist, well-draining soil with high humidity. It grows best in a warm environment and benefits from regular misting or placement in a humid terrarium. Use a light, airy mix rich in organic matter such as peat and perlite. Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid waterlogging. With its compact growth habit and ornamental foliage, Biophytum zenkeri is a unique and captivating addition for plant collectors who appreciate fine detail and tropical beauty.
