Staurogyne Repens 'White Albino' in Vitro Culture® – Rare Albino Variant with Striking Pale Foliage

Staurogyne Repens 'White Albino' is an ultra-rare and visually stunning variant of the popular Staurogyne Repens, characterized by its translucent, pale white to ivory leaves.

It’s a collector’s dream and a true statement piece for nature-style aquariums.

Now available in our sterile Vitro Culture® 4-inch bag, this plant is produced using advanced Tissue Culture Technology to ensure it arrives 100% free from algae, snails, and pesticides—ideal for high-end aquascapes and sensitive livestock like shrimp.
