Anthurium ‘King of Spades’ × Red Crystallinum — Seed Grown (HU x RC)

A rare seed-grown velvet-leaf Anthurium hybrid combining the dramatic presence of King of Spades with the colorful, high-contrast influence of Red Crystallinum. Because it was grown from seed, every plant is genetically individual—making each one a one-of-a-kind addition to a serious aroid collection.

Why Seed Grown Matters
Seed-grown Anthuriums are not clones. Leaf shape, darkness, venation, texture, emergent color, and mature size can vary widely between plants from the same cross; some may lean toward dark, structured King of Spades foliage, while others may show stronger red tones or crystalline vein contrast from Red Crystallinum.

What to Expect
• Velvety, heart-to-spade-shaped foliage with an individual phenotype
• Potential for dark green, bronze, burgundy, or red-toned emergent leaves
• Bright, contrasting veins that may become more defined with maturity
• A fully rooted, living plant—not a cutting or tissue-culture clone
• Juvenile plants will continue to develop, and mature traits cannot be guaranteed
Care
• Light: Bright, indirect light
• Water: Let the top portion of the substrate dry slightly, then water thoroughly; avoid keeping roots soggy
• Humidity: Best in 60%+ humidity, with stable conditions encouraging optimal velvet foliage
• Temperature: 65–80°F
• Substrate: Chunky, airy, fast-draining aroid mix with bark, pumice or perlite, and a moisture-retentive component
• Fertilizer: Light, consistent feeding during active growth
King of Spades × Red Crystallinum is typically happiest with bright indirect light, high humidity, and careful watering to reduce root-rot risk.
