Visiting Bucephalandra at Simunjam in raining season

2nd December 2011, there was a heavy downpour for 12 hours in western Sarawak. Some low-lying areas were flooded. When I visited the Bucephalandra in Simunjam on 4th Dec., I found 1 or 2 plants were almost pull out by the strong current, but most of them are still doing well. The water is receding fast when I went there, so most of them are not submerged into water.

Some Bucep. are almost light green coloured!

This one almost pull out by the strong water current during the flash flood very recently.

The margin of the leaf is undulated. (only those which grow very near to water edge)
