Myrmecodia tuberosa, commonly known as the Ant Plant, is a fascinating epiphyte native to Southeast Asia and Australia. It is renowned for its unique symbiotic relationship with ants, which live within the plant's specialized chambers.

This epiphyte grows on trees, clinging to branches with its thick roots. It has a large, swollen caudex (stem base) that is typically smooth and covered in spines. The caudex is hollow and contains numerous chambers and tunnels that provide shelter for ants.

Suggested in the common name, it has a mutually beneficial relationship with ants. The ants live within the plant's caudex, providing protection from herbivores and also supplying nutrients through their waste. In return, the plant provides the ants with shelter and food in the form of nectar.

Care Tips

  • Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn the leaves.
  • Water: Water regularly, keeping the potting media moist but not soggy. Allow the top layer to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering during the winter months.
  • Humidity: Maintain moderate to high humidity levels, around 50-70%. You can achieve this by misting the plant regularly or using a humidity tray.
  • Temperature: This plant prefers warm temperatures, ideally between 18-28°C (64-82°F) during the day and 13-18°C (55-64°F) at night.
  • Potting Media: Use a well-draining epiphyte potting mix, such as bark or a mixture of bark and sphagnum moss. You can also grow it mounted on cork bark or tree fern fibre.
  • Fertiliser: Fertilise weakly, every other week during the growing season (spring-summer) with a balanced liquid fertiliser.
  • Air Circulation: Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.

Classic and functional
Color: Stainless Mesh/ Blue Dial
High quality and affordable watch. Love the mesh band. It’s a classic, functional everyday look. Easy to adjust, and never runs out of power. Perfect for men who have smaller wrists. Bought for my husbands birthday, and he loves it.

Everything as expected
Color: Stainless Mesh/ Blue Dial
It's a nice watch added to the collection, looks really good on hand, the metallic mesh band is very elegant and also customizable, so it will fit perfectly on your hand. It seems that it had a bit of charge out of the box, but I'll leave it under a direct (under 20cm distance) LED desk lamp to recharge overnight, I'll also leave them under sunlight around the windows whenever possible (at least for the first week or so), it's stated in the online manual that it will need ~45 hours to fully charge on a cloudy day under the sunlight. By the way, it would've been nice to have the manual in the box, but at least it's easy to find the (generic) manual in their website. The fluorescence of the hands and hour dots are really bright and mine had nice bluish color. Of the features, the chronograph works perfectly as expected, the manual also states to set the time 5 minutes ahead of the real time then slowly rewind back to the current time whenever setting the time, for the time keeping to be more accurate because of some gear movements inside. To be honest, it would be great to see Citizen use scratch resistant sapphire instead of some mineral as the face protective layer, as they do for other high-end models, the technology is not new and I think it wouldn't make it that much more expensive, I hope this one will be resistant enough🤞🏻 Overall, this is the first day I received the watch, I'm quite happy with my purchase, it's nice knowing you won't need to replace the battery anytime soon 😛

Great watch for the money
Color: Stainless Mesh/ Blue Dial
Looks great. I swapped out the band for a leather strap. Nice watch, well designed. My other eco drive has been going strong for 15 years or so without a hitch. So I have high expectations for this one.
