Re: Anthurium ID

---

I would like to try to clear up some confusion about the ID of a particular Anthurium.

 

Marek Argent originally asked the ID of the Anthurium picture located at: http://aroid.org/midamerica/201004images/032.jpg

I took this picture in the Missouri Botanical Garden’s Climatron on April 24.  The picture located at the link above was a reduced size for web use.  I have cropped the Anthurium out of the full resolution image and attached it to this message so everyone can see the plant better.

 

There was some discussion about berry color, which is helpful in identifying species.  I think most of this discussion was based around another Anthurium that people were trying to identify.  John Criswick introduced this image (http://www.wschowa.com/abrimaal/araceum/anthurium/leuconeurum.htm) to the conversation.

 

Concerning the discussion of the picture taken at the Climatron, there is not an inflorescence in that photo.  Some people may have misinterpreted a yellow leaf from a neighboring plant as an inflorescence, which is why I am attaching the higher resolution version of the image.

 

 

Dear Marek,

 

          It does resemble ‘Crystal Hope’ but I don’t think Crystal Hope would ever put out a long petiole like the one on the right .  It is by nature a very compact plant indeed.

 

                                                                             John.

Dear John,

 

This larger plant (DSCF1890) may be A. leuconeurum or A. magnificum. Both grow very big.

Everybody is saying that the plant in the picture is A. clarinervium but attached, 1892, is the plant I have always known as A. clarinervium. These leaves are 15 cm. long and I don’t doubt they can get much bigger under optimum conditions, but in comparison with A. crystallinum and A. magnificum the plant is a dwarf. It produces orange fruits.

 

Incidentally there is another plant introduced into the trade through tissue culture as Anthurium ‘Crystal Hope’ which may be a mutation of A. crystallinum.  The leaves on this specimen are 23 cm. long. See 1890.

 

John.

This one surely looks like Anth. crystallinum or A. clarinervium or maybe even A. magnificum, but I am not expert enough to tell the difference.
