A highly sought-after hybrid Anthurium with large, ovate-cordate leaves, well-defined rounded basal lobes, and a semi-velvety surface in deep, uniform dark green. Long petioles give the foliage an elegant, upright presence, with subtle lighter venation adding quiet depth to the blade.
-
Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which scorches the large, soft leaves and dulls the velvety surface.
-
Temperature: 60–78°F (16–26°C); an intermediate grower that performs best with stable, moderate temperatures and no cold drafts below 55°F (13°C).
-
Humidity: 65–85%; high humidity is essential to maintain the characteristic semi-velvety texture and support vigorous new leaf development.
-
Watering: Water thoroughly when the top inch of substrate dries out; avoid saturation and do not allow the roots to dry out completely between waterings.
Additional Notes
Hybrid Advantage: Anthurium Ace of Spades is prized for its bold, architectural leaf form, deep velvety coloration, and strong adaptability to intermediate indoor growing conditions — a staple collector hybrid with enduring appeal.
Arrival & Establishment Recommendation: Plants are shipped bare root and well-established. Upon arrival, pot promptly in a well-draining aroid mix and water thoroughly to rehydrate the root system before placing in its final growing spot.
