Anthurium crystallinum

SCENTIFIC NAME: Anthurium crystallinum KNOWN AS: Crystal Anthurium, Ace of Spades (often confused with A. clarinervium) CLIMATE (LOCATION): Central & South America | Tropical Rainforest (Epiphyte) DESCRIPTION: The Anthurium crystallinum is the crown jewel of many aroid collections. It is famous for its large, velvety, heart-shaped leaves that can reach massive sizes. The foliage is a deep forest green, but its most striking feature is the shimmering, crystal-like white veins that outline the leaf's structure. Unlike the Clarinervium, the leaves of the Crystallinum are typically thinner, more elongated, and have a more pronounced "sparkle" under bright light.
