Palms1984 Posted December 28, 2022 Report Share Posted December 28, 2022 (edited) This is my 20 year plus old Anthurium ‘Lazarz’. It’s a very tough plant. It tolerates low humidity, drought and cool weather very well. It’s been growing happily outside here in San Diego, CA. ever since I purchased it in June of 2002.

Dartolution Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 Thought I would share a few photos from the house anthuriums today including a new Queen anthurium. These are nearing "run of the mill" anthuriums at this point. Anthurium crystalinum threw out a new leaf. Quite large and still floppy: Anthurium crystalinum division: The new Queen Anthurium I've now had for about a month and a half and has been rooting in the pot quite well and aggressively, already coming out of the bottom, and is in the process of producing its first leaf for me. It hasn't gone brown or crispy, and seems to be quite happy. Last up is this Anthurium X which I have struggled with for years. Outdoors it produces near flawless leaves, indoors they go deformed. Shame, because the leaves are quite velvety and shiny. I will likely repot this one in spring into a better aroid mix I now use on all my houseplants and aroids. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

realarch Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 Just a couple of photos from the yard. These Anthurium were looking great after what seemed like never ending rain the last seven days. A. spectabilis, pseudospectabilis, and a few other things. The one grouping is growing in a clump of old root bosses of C. lutescens and the other is in a pot I need locate to someplace higher.

piping plovers Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 (edited) Beautiful lush gardens. Amazing to see a worocqueanum just casually growing outdoors on a tree. And the Alocasia cuprea is really nice too . Ah, the wonders of growing in Hawaii 😁 Edited February 25 by piping plovers Added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realarch Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Thanks Joesph, took awhile for the worocqueanum to get going, let’s see how it does in the long term. The A. cuprea are like weeds, they are always popping up in the garden. Tim 2 Tim Hilo, Hawaii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metalfan Posted February 26 Author Report Share Posted February 26 I'm about to have to chop my Warocq. It got too cold this winter during the Christmas deep freeze (it's right by the wall) and it defoliated except for two leaves. I am going to propagate it and move it in toward the core of the greenhouse where its a lot warmer in winter. Temp sensor said it only got to 48F in the area where it grows, and nothing else was damaged, so I guess 48 is just too cold for Warocq 33723B74-44CE-4006-9790-EDAD0EF67326.heic "You can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes"---SliPknot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cindy Adair Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Tim, you always inspire me to keep planting! Aroids are certainly perfect palm companions and the more I see the more I like them. Colombia and Hawaii travel last Fall was aspirational as well as this PT topic. Thanks everyone! Cindy Adair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realarch Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Mahalo Marie & Cindy, I just love these big leaf plants. They add such an exotic vibe to the garden. Tim Tim Hilo, Hawaii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piping plovers Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 (edited) 21 hours ago, realarch said: A. spectabilis, pseudospectabilis, and a few other things. Tim, interesting to see both species together. Is the first photo you posted (and copied below) the spectabilis? I got one from Hawaii labeled as spectabilis and I really hope it matures into the wider leaves like yours has. Also, if anyone can solve this anthurium puzzle —-I photographed this anthurium at Fairchild’s conservatory a few years ago and am still trying to identify it. There was no tag I could locate and the closest photos I can match online is pseudospectabilis with the more wide, stout (less narrow) mature leaves. Anyone know what species this could be? Very robust and heavy texture to the foliage and petioles. Thanks All, Joseph Edited February 26 by piping plovers Photos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiearoids Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Colourful veitchii hybrid .. there are a few variations on this around in Aus now .. colour and texture make for a real winner. 1 1 Michael in palm paradise, Tully, wet tropics in Australia, over 4 meters of rain every year. Home of the Golden Gumboot, its over 8m high , our record annual rainfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piping plovers Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 A. Pallidiflorum putting out ever longer leaves, I had to raise the plant to keep the leaves from getting submerged into the jacuzzi tub below. A. Veitchii s even put out leaves over the winter. Also, my first new leaf on A. luxurians. Love how the texture catches the sunlight. Lastly, a grouping that enjoys the East light in the kitchen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realarch Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 Joseph, I was assuming it was A. spectabilis due to it’s wider leaves,the pseudos leaves are so much thinner. Tim 1 Tim Hilo, Hawaii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piping plovers Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 Ah, thank you Tim. Much appreciated. Such a gorgeous anthurium specimen. -Joseph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
