Hi Ferenc,

This is a Schismatoglottis. It maybe S. roseospatha, but it is hard to tell since the inflorescence you depict is in fact a teratological artefact. The spathe has reverted to a a modified leaf. My guess is that the plant has been raised from tissue culture and is still affected by the chemicals used to induce multiple-shoot production. I aslo suspect that the plant may have been treated with chemical to=A0compact its grwoth too.

Out of interest, where did you buy the plant?

Dear all,
I have bought a plant as an Anubias, but I am pretty sure that it is not an Anubias. What can it be? Some pictures of the plant (it is a compact, small plant in a 5 cm /2 inches/ diameter=A0container):
