Anthurium dressler


This beautiful black velvet leaf species has the reputation of being very difficult to grow , and it is . I lost many of the seedlings , but a few have finally matured .
Recent article in Aroideana points out the need for very good quality water , not unlike that of some carnivorous plants .

New foliage on these Aglaonema hybrids is impressive.

Seeds on the pink petiole species looks great .
