Anthurium Queens Kiss

A hybrid of Anth. besseae aff. × Anth. Ecuagenera Queen, two warm-growing Anthurium species from South America. The foliage is broad and heart-shaped, with prominent primary venation, a semi-bullate surface texture, and a sturdy upright habit.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid harsh midday sun, which can scorch the broad leaves.
• Temperature: 65–82°F (18–28°C); a warm tropical grower that prefers stable conditions without cold drafts.
• Humidity: 70–85%; high ambient humidity supports full leaf expansion and maintains the glossy surface texture.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when the top layer of substrate begins to dry; avoid waterlogging and never allow the roots to sit in standing water.

Additional Notes

Hybrid Advantage: This hybrid combines vigorous growth with ornamental foliage that makes a strong visual statement in any tropical collection. Its adaptability to warm indoor conditions and tolerance of moderate humidity fluctuations make it well-suited for a range of growers.

Arrival & Establishment Recommendation: Upon arrival, plant promptly in a well-draining aroid mix (chunky perlite, bark, and coco coir). Water generously at first planting to rehydrate the roots and encourage rapid establishment.
