Anthurium papillilaminum x Fantasy

🌿 Anthurium papillilaminum × Anthurium ‘Fantasy’

A striking Anthurium hybrid combining the dramatic, velvety foliage of Anthurium papillilaminum with the distinctive characteristics of Anthurium ‘Fantasy’. This cross can produce elongated, dark green leaves with pronounced venation and a beautiful velvety texture.

💡 Light: Bright, indirect light. Filtered morning light is ideal; avoid harsh direct sun.

💧 Water: Water when the top 1–2 inches of the substrate begins to dry. Keep the growing medium lightly moist while allowing excess water to drain freely.

💦 Humidity: Prefers 60–80%+ humidity with good air circulation.

🌡️ Temperature: 18–28°C. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 15°C.

🌱 Soil: Use a chunky, fast-draining Anthurium mix with orchid bark, perlite/pumice, sphagnum or coco chips, and a small amount of organic material.

🌿 Fertilizer: Feed with a diluted balanced fertilizer every 2–4 weeks during active growth.

🪴 Growth: Give the plant consistent warmth, humidity, and excellent root aeration. A support can help as the plant develops larger foliage.

✨ Collector appeal: The combination of papillilaminum’s velvety texture and strong venation with the traits of ‘Fantasy’ makes this an exciting hybrid for Anthurium collectors. Individual plants can vary, so each new leaf can bring its own shape, texture, and coloration.
