Anthurium warocqueanum 'QUEEN' - Narrow Dark

Large plant, will only be Express Posted and placed in XXL parcel

The Anthurium warocqueanum dark narrow form is a rare and distinctive variant of the species commonly known as the Queen Anthurium. This form retains the species’ characteristic, elongated, pendulous leaves, which under optimal conditions can exceed 1.5 to 2 metres in length. The narrow form is distinguished by its proportionally slimmer lamina and more compressed lateral veins, giving the foliage a refined, elongated appearance. The leaves display an exceptionally deep, almost black-green hue on a velvety surface, accentuated by contrasting silvery-white primary venation. Due to its rarity, slower growth rate, and highly defined leaf morphology, the dark narrow form is regarded as one of the most desirable and collectible expressions of A. warocqueanum among aroid enthusiasts.
