Anthurium dressleri x Anthurium Black Diamond

A hybrid of Anth. dressleri × Anth. Black Diamond, two species and hybrids prized for their dramatic, heavily textured foliage. Leaves are large, ovate-cordate with a pronounced bullate surface, deeply impressed venation, reddish petioles, and new growth emerging in warm bronze-gold tones that mature to deep, near-velvety green.

• Light: Bright indirect light with up to 70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which scorches the large, textured leaves and fades the deep green coloration.
• Temperature: 65–82°F (18–28°C); a warm to intermediate grower that thrives with stable warmth and no cold drafts below 55°F (13°C).
• Humidity: 70–90%; high humidity is essential to maintain the characteristic bullate 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: This cross inherits the bold, sculptural leaf texture of A. dressleri and the deep, dramatic coloration of Black Diamond, resulting in a collector-grade plant with exceptional ornamental impact.

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.
