Looking for Anthurium ID

11 years ago

Hi all,

Ive been growing two of these plants for a few years now.

They were purchased in poor condition but recovered quickly, as they love the hot humid summers of central VA ;)

Of course browsing Steve Lucas' website has been most helpful, but I'd like to throw this out there incase someone sees something they recognize and could offer an ID.

Ive included shots of a mature leaf, a freshly unfurled leaf, an emerging leaf and a view of the plant's stem

Well, I searched some more and may have found an ID...
Anthurium faustomirandae seems like a match. Found some good photos and descriptions... I did read there are some hybrids out there, but Im satisfied with the ID.
I have had great luck with the plant and recommend it to whoever can get their hands on one. I keep one in a humid greenhouse and the other lives outside in the summer (shaded) and indoors in winter(dry)...
Welp, thought id share

Looks like a really nice one. Between variations within species and all the hybrids, it's often difficult to come up with an ID.
