Epiphytic plants attach to rocks and driftwood instead of rooting in the ground, drawing what they need straight from the water. That makes them perfect for hardscape-heavy scapes, bare-bottom tanks, and anyone who hates replanting. At School of Scape, we stock the slow, steady, almost-impossible-to-kill kind, from broad-leaved Anubias and textured Bucephalandra to hardy Java Fern. Glue or tie them onto your wood, and they do the rest.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhy Epiphyte Aquarium Plants Are a Beginner's Best Friend\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIf you have ever watched a plant melt in week one, epiphytes are your comeback story.
