Paul,
You did not say how old your Anthurium is but.... If it is a juvinal, they
will often produce an inflorescence to get the polled spread around...
sort of spreading the genes type thing... but, as in a lot of other
species, they do not produce fruit till the plant is a bit more mature...
Young plants will produce large quantities of pollen... but only a mature
plant in good condition will really produce good viable seed.... You did
nothing wrong....
Congratulations on being Speaker at the meeting at FTG later this month...
I will try to make it.
