Anthurium Luxurious Shushupe x Anth. forgetii

An outstanding hybrid combining Anth. Luxurious Shushupe and Anth. forgetii, merging the robust, velvety dark foliage of Luxurious Shushupe with the distinctive rounded, sinus-free leaves and silvery venation of forgetii — a rare and highly collectible pairing.

• Light: Bright, indirect light; consistent diffused light enhances the silver venation contrast and preserves the velvety leaf surface.
• Temperature: Intermediate to warm-growing — 65–82°F (18–28°C); avoid temperatures below 55°F (13°C) and cold drafts.
• Humidity: Prefers 65–85%; high humidity is essential to fully express the foliage texture and venation brilliance inherited from both parents.
• Watering: Water when the top layer of substrate begins to dry; use a chunky, well-aerated aroid mix to prevent root rot.
• Growth Habit: Upright terrestrial grower producing broad, substantial leaves; thrives in a breathable aroid substrate with good drainage and moderate root space.

Additional Notes:

Foliage is expected to display broad, rounded to ovate leaves with a deep velvety green surface and prominent silvery-white venation — a trait prominently inherited from Anth. forgetii. The absence of a leaf sinus, combined with the dark, textured blade from the Luxurious Shushupe lineage, makes this hybrid a uniquely sculptural specimen that grows more impressive with each new leaf.
