Beyond a doubt, one of the rarest and most desirable of Anthurium species. Native only to the Amazonian region Colombia to Peru, it has very rarely been seen and is apparently near extinction in it’s native habitat from over collecting in the late 19th century. In cultivation only a few growers have been able to acclimate wild collected specimens and until now, no one has successfully set and grown seed.

Now we have the extraordinary opportunity to offer seedlings grown by Dr. Darien, renowned plantsman and horticulturist from Vista, California. The plant pictured above with Dr. Darian, has leaves measuring 32 x 46in and is not fully mature! This species is not difficult to grow, according to Dr. Darien, as long as it is kept moist and well shaded. He recommends under the bench.
