Labisia Beccari Turtle Back Green

Labisia beccari “Turtle Back Green” is a rare Sumatran species recognized for its sculpted, symmetrical foliage that resembles the patterned shell of a turtle. Collected in the mossy foothills of Gunung Marapi in West Sumatra, it grows low among leaf litter and volcanic rock, thriving in constant humidity and filtered light. The leaves display a deep, matte green tone, with fine ridges that add both texture and presence. Its compact, architectural form makes it a prized addition to any terrarium or rare plant collection.

Care:

• Light: Bright, indirect light

• Humidity: 75–100%

• Temperature: 22–28°C (72–82°F)

• Substrate: Loose, well-draining mix (sphagnum moss, bark, perlite)

• Watering: Keep the substrate evenly moist; avoid letting it dry out
