laiki lana

ʻO Hygroryza a i ʻole Laiki lana, inoa ʻepekema ʻo Hygroryza aristata. ʻO ka mea kanu no ka ʻāina ʻāina ʻo Asia. Ma ke ʻano, ulu ia ma ka lepo maʻemaʻe ma nā kapa o nā loko, nā muliwai a me nā kino wai ʻē aʻe, a ma ka ʻili o ka wai ma ke ʻano o nā "mokupuni" e lana ana.

Hoʻokumu ka mea kanu i kahi lāʻau kolo kolo a hiki i hoʻokahi a me ka hapalua mika ka lōʻihi a me nā lau lanceolate nui me kahi ʻili wai-repellent. Ua uhi ʻia nā petioles o nā lau me ka mānoanoa, puha, e like me ka puʻupuʻu kulina e hana ana ma ke ʻano he lana. Ulu nā aʻa lōʻihi mai nā axils o nā lau, e kau ana i loko o ka wai a i ʻole ke aʻa i ka lepo.

He kūpono ka laiki lana no nā aquarium nui, a kūpono hoʻi i nā loko hāmama i ka wā mahana. Ma muli o kona ʻano, ʻaʻole ia e uhi piha i ka ʻili o ka wai, e waiho ana i nā hakahaka ma waena o nā kumu a me nā lau. ʻO ka ʻohi maʻamau e kaupalena ʻia ka ulu ʻana a hoʻonui i ka lālā. Hiki i ka ʻāpana i hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ke lilo i mea kanu kūʻokoʻa. Unpretentious a maʻalahi ka ulu ʻana, maikaʻi ka wai palupalu mahana a me nā pae māmā kiʻekiʻe no ka ulu ʻana.
