Anubias barteri var. coffeifolia is a very beautiful, low cultivar of Anubias barteri. 15–25 cm tall and a creeping rhizome from 10–15 cm or more. It is characteristic that the leaves arch considerably between the leaf ribs, and the new leaves are red-brown. The colour combination and leaf shape make it an attractive variety in both large and small aquariums. It flowers frequently under water but does not produce seeds there.
