Product description

The Anthurium Dark Phoenix is the ultimate statement piece for collectors who crave drama, depth, and a touch of the gothic. This specific "Red Vein" selection is the peak of the hybrid’s beauty, featuring emergent leaves that look like molten lava before hardening into a terrifyingly beautiful, velvety black-green.

This powerhouse is well-established in a 4-inch nursery pot, with a root system as strong as its name suggests.

🌿 Why the Dark Phoenix "Red Vein" is the Crown Jewel:

•The Emergent Glow: When a new leaf pushes out, it arrives in shades of deep burgundy and vivid red. The contrast of the fiery red veins against the darkening leaf blade is a spectacle you have to see to believe.

•Velvet Texture: As the leaves mature, they develop a thick, opulent velvet texture that absorbs light, making the plant look like it was carved from midnight.

•Aggressive "Phoenix" Shape: The foliage is sharply lobed and elongated, giving it a predatory, elegant silhouette that stands out among rounder leaf shapes.

🏠 Care Quick-Tips:

•Light: Bright, indirect light is best. To get those deep "Dark Phoenix" colors and keep the red veins prominent, provide high-quality filtered light (avoid direct sun, which can "bleach" the velvet).

•Watering: Anthuriums love a "wet-dry" cycle but never want to be bone dry. Water when the top inch of your chunky mix feels dry.

•Substrate: Thrives in a "Nook Favorite" mix: chunky orchid bark, perlite, charcoal, and a little coco coir or sphagnum.

•Humidity: To keep those huge, velvet leaves from getting "stuck" or crispy, aim for 70%+ humidity.
