Latin name: Anthurium ‘Legacy of Spade’ 🗡️
Common name: Anthurium ‘Legacy of Spade’
Origin: Hybrid origin (likely from tropical South America lineage, bred for ornamental foliage).
Standout traits: Deep emerald-green, spade-shaped leaves with dramatic veining and a soft satin finish. Each leaf unfurls with an elegant point and matures into a thick, slightly textured surface reminiscent of classic velvet anthuriums but sturdier and glossier. Highly collectible for its balance between bold structure and refined sheen.
FLOWER DETAILS
Produces sleek, upright spathes of pale green to off-white with slender spadices that subtly curve upward. While modest, the blooms create a sculptural accent against the lush foliage — understated elegance over showiness.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
☀️ Light: Bright, indirect light; avoid strong afternoon sun that can burn leaves.
💧 Water: Keep evenly moist; allow the top 2–3 cm of mix to dry between waterings. Avoid waterlogging.
🌡️ Humidity: High (65–85%); essential for consistent leaf health and shine.
🪴 Soil: Chunky aroid mix — sphagnum, bark, perlite, and a small portion of coco peat.
🏺 Potting: Use a breathable pot (terracotta or plastic with drainage); repot every 12–18 months.
🌱 Growth rate: Moderate (5–8 cm leaf expansion every 6 months).
🐾 Pet friendly: No.
